This paper advocates for transforming knowledge systems to advance social change by centering lived experiences, legitimizing diverse forms of knowledge, and fostering collective storytelling through digital media. The paper offers four key recommendations: (1) building inclusive in digital ecosystems; (2) promoting critical epistemic literacies as a tool for civic responsibility; (3) embracing multimodal knowledge production, such as film and oral histories, to increase accessibility; and (4) eliminating news site paywalls to ensure equitable information access. Together, these recommendations have potential to dismantle entrenched power structures and reimagine a digital landscape where knowledge is accessible, collaborative, and rooted in shared humanity.
