The Danger of a Single Story

The student teacher I worked with in the spring, Ange, used this video of Chimamanda Adichie in our Grade 12 Writer's Craft class.  I think it could also be used in a variety of classes - talking about stereotypes, reading, writing, worldviews.  It is about 19 minutes long and talks about the danger of grouping people under a single idea.  I think Chimamanda Adichie is an interesting speaker and storyteller.
