Single Story

Do I hold a single story

All I have ever heard about Africa is the poor and savanna  and helping with an organization called” feed my starving children.” I have heard about disease spread by mosquitoes in Africa and I was filled with unseeing pity.

What stories might you be missing

I feel like they the people of Africa have so much to give. But we think that they are as helpless as babies. I think that we are the babies all we do is order stuff online instead of gong to the story or making it our selves. Poor countries have more workers because they make stuff with there hands while we just order online and just to feed our lust.

What is the danger of a single story

We all need to be aware of stories on each sides. I feel like we are as Americans who are blind we act like it is only us in the world we need to open our eyes.
