Digication Scholars Conversations

In this episode of Digication Scholars Conversations, host Kelly Driscoll continues her conversation with Brittany Linus, a Stanford University graduate of African and African-American Studies and Digital Humanities.

Brittany discusses 'modding' in video games, particularly The Sims, and its role in enhancing representation, specifically for Black digital users. Through modding, users can create worlds reflecting their lived experiences, thus filling gaps in representation and offering empowerment through virtual spaces.

Brittany also reflects on her Visible Bodies project and the transformative role of storytelling in cultural rhetoric.

This episode highlights the power of digital tools in education and representation, offering listeners insights into how technology and personal initiative can create more inclusive gaming and learning experiences.
