Chimamanda Adichie video response

I agree with Adichie and the power in a simple story; if it be from a novel, a movie, or something you overhear, stories can and are influencing to people. I believe most Americans (U.S. citizens, don't want to offend any south Americans) believe Africa has one certain way of being. When a Texan hears the word border, their thought process automatically gives them an image of Mexico. In fact, when they see or think of any latino, they automatically think- Mexican. Now I'm not just saying it's the U.S. that puts a bias on people, I'm sure that people outside of the U.S. think that Americans are all wealthy or have a certain better way of life.
