“Many stories matter. Stories have been used to dispossess and to malign. But stories can also be used to empower, and to humanize. Stories can break the dignity of a people. But stories can also repair that broken dignity.”
Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
I found this amazing TED talk, called, “The Danger of a Single Story.” Although the presenter was new to me; I’m now a fan and a follower. Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie is a Nigerian born author, who, through personal narrative and deep wisdom invites her hears seek out multiple stories, foster curiosity, and resist the assumption that one knows another’s experience.
I shared her TED talk with my hermeneutics class and it engendered a lively and vital conversation. So grateful!
