I watched Chimamanda Nggozi Adiche’s TED talk entitled “The Danger of a Single Story.” This talk fit really well with our discussion of narratives and storytelling this semester. She warns of using a single story and applying it to all people, places, or things of the same type. This is actually a logical fallacy, called the fallacy of composition. I found myself trying to think of times that I succumbed to a single story. This mostly happens when I meet people from different cultures and backgrounds, and let my limited knowledge, or single story, affect how I see and treat them. I think this TED talk can help people be more aware that we have implicit biases and work to correct them. It also speaks to the importance of getting knowledge from a diverse set of sources, and being willing to tell your own story.
