Celebrating creativity, what we have in common, and taking a stand

The power of storytelling

December 21st, 2009 Posted in Taking a stand

Photographer Ryan Lobo describes his work at TED India (nov 2009):

At the end of his talk he says:
"That’s the power of storytelling: focus on what’s dignified, courageous and beautyful".

Isn’t that much more interesting and a larger contribution than our ‘usual’ news stories? How come we do not see more of these in our newspapers. Sites like Newspiration try to make a difference in mainstream media, but it soes not seem to be holding on (yet).
