This episode is part 3 of 3 episodes that delve into the role of motivated thinking.
In this conversation, Catherine Quinlan discusses motivated thinking and shares video clips of her prior interview to delve into the intersections of art, culture, and science, particularly through the lens of the Gullah culture. By using prior video clip interviews from her research, particularly her interview with authentic Gullah Artist, Sonja Griffin Evans, she demonstrates the importance of motivated thinking in the role of understandings, spiritual connections, and biases in shaping perceptions, and how cultural narratives can influence education and identity. Through her artistic expressions, Quinlan emphasizes how recognizing and celebrating cultural contributions while addressing historical complexities can add color to the sciences.
