This is a speech by Chimamanda Ngozi Adicie. The topic is the danger of knowing only single stories. A single story is a story that only gives you one point of view and causes you to form one biased opinion. This can be applied to recent popular cases such as Ferguson. A single story point of view of the case could be that Michael Brown or the police officer were completely innocent or completely guilty. This view disregards all the factors that play into what happened.

A single story a person could gather from viewing my life at its surface is that I am very quite. A lot of people have this misconception about me. In reality I talk a lot and am very opinionated. enjoy the video
