"Power is the ability not to just to tell the story of another person, but to make it the definitive story of that person.”
- Nigerian novelist, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
In her Ted talk about cultural stereotypes Adichie describes a phenomenon she calls ‘the danger of a single story’.
“Show a people as one thing, as only one thing, over and over again, and that is what they become."
