	As knowledge ecosystems increasingly shift online, questions of whose voices are represented, how systemic bias ~~shapes~~ narratives, and how communities can reclaim storytelling spaces become ~~ever more~~ urgent. In this session, we will explore the role of community-driven knowledge in resisting bias, the persistence of exclusionary structures across digital platforms, and the possibilities digital humanities offer for inclusive and equitable participation. Aligned with the Wikimedia 2030 Movement Strategy—particularly the goals of ensuring equity in decision-making, promoting knowledge equity, and innovating in free knowledge practices—this Conversation Hour will invite us to reflect on how Wikimedia communities can challenge systemic bias, amplify marginalized voices, and build more resilient and representative knowledge systems for the future. Drawing on her expertise at the crossroads of literature, technology, and culture, Shanmugapriya will guide us in rethinking the role of narratives in shaping free knowledge and in strengthening Wikimedia’s mission of equity and inclusion.		<youtube>9r3nGyaOUN0</youtube>
