Read the excerpt from "The Danger of Single Story" by
Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
This single story of Africa ultimately comes, I think from
Western literature. Now, here is a quote from the
writing of a London merchant called John Lok, who
sailed to west Afnca in 1561 and kept a fascinating
account of his voyage After referring to the black
Africans as "beasts who have no houses." he writes.
"They are also people without heads, having their
mouth and eyes in their breasts
Now, I've laughed every time l've read this And one
must admire the imagination of John Lok
