The Western Center for Social Impact and Innovation (Miami University) presents Unfinished: Stories on the End of the World.
We’ve been told many kinds of ending tales. Religious and Scientific, Science Fiction and folklore. In this podcast we will discuss these stories and suggest that the end of the world is less of a single terrifying event in a distant future and more of a multitude of events that have been around for a long time. If the world is ending, we must ask… what is ending… and for whom.
