===Narrative and Power=== There is a relationship between narrative and power that can be seen in two different ways. The first way shows us that it matters who gets to even tell the stories and narratives around a group and furthermore, who gets to be believed. A group's history shapes the way they are seen by everyone and therefore there is a key difference between someone who belongs in the group’s version compared to an outsider’s version. It's important to note that there can also be a clash between members of the same group who have a different version on their native as it connects to their identity -An example of this would be in the 1960s and 1970s when African Americans changed the narrative of their own story from a victim side to a resilience The second relationship that shows the connection between narrative and power is the product of morality that comes out of these stories and history. These moral opinions either support the structure of our society or challenge the norms and furthermore, these stories and connections have the power to influence the support for the groups from people outside. -An example of this would be the moral arguments against European colonizers provided by Native Americans in their telling of their history as it connects to their identity
