Every day after school Ali Muldrow's parents asked her two very different questions: "What did you learn today" and "What did they lie to you about today." We listen to a story Ali told that shows how these two questions shaped her approach to teaching. We also talk about how useful storytelling is in fundraising and activism and her new role on the Madison school board.

We listen to a story Ali Muildrow told at the Madison Moth StorySlam, explore the themes in the story and discuss how she crafted the story. You can also hear Ali every week on WORT Community Radio's Public Affair show: https://www.wortfm.org/news-talk/talk/public-affair/
