Hello all!

This video is in reference to February's wonderful conversation about race and perspective. The title of Chimamanda Adichie's speech, "The Danger of a Single Story," sums it up so well: there is indeed danger in hearing only a single perspective of any story.

My daughter was asked to watch it for her senior AP English class, and she immediately shared it with me. I'm so glad she did, as I found it fascinating. I hope you do as well.

I believe that reading is reading, so read what you want!
