SOC 304 Week 6 Discussion 1 | Assignment Help | Wilmington University
Week 6 Discussion Board
After watching the video below, share your thoughts on the concept of “a
single story.” Why is it dangerous? And for whom? Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie presents examples from fiction and
anecdotes from her own life. Did any of these
examples resonate with you? Think about how your perception of people in places
you have never visited have been formed based on what you've read or seen in
movies and on TV. Have you read books by authors from Nigeria or any other
African country? What about from any other country discussed this week? Or from
marginalized groups in America?
Your initial post should relate Adichie’s
presentation to content from this course. Consider, also, if/how this class has
encouraged you to look beyond single stories to understand the diversity of
life experiences of people from various ascribed groups.
