Quote: The “single” story creates stereotypes. And the problem with stereotypes is not that they are untrue, but that they are incomplete. They make one story become the only story. -Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie

Black History:  Special Delivery!!

This quote is taken from a powerful 2009 TED talk video called, “The Danger of A Single Story”.  In the video, Chimamanda Adichie challenges her audience in regard to how stereotypes are by nature singular; framing an issue or concern through only one lens.  Click below to view, “The Danger of A Single Story” video.  I would encourage you to watch the entire video.  It is very POWERFUL!!:
