Chimamanda Adichie's enlightening presentation: "The Danger of A Single Story."
The video shares a critically important viewpoint. It highlights well the necessity for authentic Black education and multicultural tolerance. I got many feedback on it. One in particular was too poignant.
Referring to this powerful African woman - Chimamanda Adichie's "single story" presentation, the commentator, wrote:
Isn't that so, so, so sad. The "benevolent" white savoirs, accomplices to the imperialistic ones so violate the Haitian child's psyche, so mess up the African and Black mind, so strum up dependency as to perennially have a gig in Haiti, that they teach Black children at their Pà ¨pà ¨ schools to recite:
"Our ancestors the Gauls had blond hair and blue eyes! "
No wonder Haiti's schooled class are sooooo lost! This is what they do in Africa also. That's why our brothers and sisters are our enemies. They learn early, in so many ways- overt, covert and subliminal ways, to defend the white cultural and imperialistic interests, not their own at all cost!
