When a rose grows thorns,
You will forget its precious petals
And call it dangerous,
As if it wasn't your hands
That would rip it from its roots.
Perhaps the roses grew tired
Of growing to be picked.

Happy Worldbuilding Wednesday! Tell us about stories. What kinds of stories do the people in your world tell each other? What medium do they most use: song, poems, television, holograms, shared dreams? What value do they have in society? A means of entertainment, a way to keep history, cautionary tales? How are the storytellers, what tales do they tell?
Given that in this world all kinds of art are forbidden, stories are a secret pleasure. They're told in hushed tones at night, as cautious tales to the kids before going to bed, or in illegal meetings were word lovers gather to discuss their favourite retelling, no one daring to out any of these words on paper but everyone remembering every word of them.
However I think the most special place for storytellers is Apparata's underground. Long forgotten, the abandoned routes work now as some sort of Blsck Market where artists trade old classics (whether it's in books, films, music, paintings, etc) or new discoverings.

The animation industry is dominated by white male animators, this particular article was very beneficial in expanding my awareness of the blsck female community within the animation industry. The article provided me with numerous examples of black female animators and people of colour in the industry to interview or research:
“Rashida Jones and writer Will McCormack left production on Pixar’s (a Disney subsidiary) Toy Story 4, claiming, “women and people of colour do not have an equal creative voice” under former chief creative officer John Lasseter”.
“there were exceptions such as Disney animators Retta Scott, the first woman animator hired in 1938, and Mary Blair, hired in 1940 or male artists of colour Tyrus Wong, the studio’s first Asian-American animation artist in the 1940s, and Floyd Norman, the first Black animator hired in the 1950s. But by and large, up until the late 20th century it was an anomaly”
“New York City-based writer and producer Taylor Shaw, who is also a content strategist for Broadly’s parent company VICE Media, began developing an animated series centering Black women in their early 20s living on the South Side of Chicago, her hometown, in 2017.”
“Shaw launched Black Women Animate, an initiative to close the talent gap in the animation space for Black women and non-binary people.”
