From PRX this is the moth radio hour.
I'm your host, Jennifer Hickson.
In this hour, we'll be exploring stories about autonomy, the ability to make your own decisions, and the agency to do what's best for you despite the obstacles that life invariably throws your way.
We'll hear about autonomy in the context of a family, a classroom, or, in the case of this first story, a community, and the desire to be the one to tell its story.
