Epistemicide Part 3: Who Got Erased And How to Recover What Was Lost
What happens when stories, songs, and structures are rewritten or erased altogether? In this final part of our Epistemicide series, we trace the loss of knowledge across the arts, architecture, music, literature, and language. But this isn’t just about mourning the erased. It’s about recovering what was lost, resisting with curiosity, and building a culture of memory and imagination. From banned books to folk art to fast food buildings, nothing is too niche, too “lowbrow.” And it's never too late to learn or to remember.
Rebellion doesn’t have to roar. It can whisper, question, or simply refuse. Meet the young people who stood up for what’s right—and the adults who chose courage and stood beside them. Learning is liberation. Defiance can be kind.
