Fantasy: More Than An Escape
Many people come to fantasy for the escape—to explore new worlds, magical circumstances, and problems that seem far away from our own. But fantasy is not only a portal but a mirror, showing us the truth of our own world and providing perspectives on how to navigate issues in our own lives and systems. Join us on Twitter Spaces as we discuss our favorite fantasy stories, how creating new worlds can shed light on our own, and how important—and fun—that can be!
