SR.Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie

This activity is a part of our academic writing.



 1. Did the first talk help you in understanding of postcolonialism?

By understanding the nature of the question we should know about the postcolonialism. It is the historical period or state of affairs representing the aftermath of Westerncolonialism; the term can also be used to describe the concurrent project to reclaim and rethink the history and agency of people subordinated under various forms of imperialism.

Our lives, our cultures, are composed of many overlapping stories. Novelist Chimamanda Adichie tells the story of how she found her authentic cultural voice  and warns that if we hear only a single story about another person or country, we risk a critical misunderstanding.


2. Did the arguments in the talks are convincing ?

We Should All Be Feminists is a book-length essay by the Nigerian author Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie. First published in 2014 by Fourth Estate, it talks about the definition of feminism for the 21st century. 

Yes,it convincing because it shows the So long  inequality and male supremacy persist, women and girls need feminism. Men and boys need it too because equality is better for everyone. Even though we're well into the 21st century, women are still under-represented in leadership positions and men are under-represented in caring roles.It also gives some postivive effects like Gender equitable societies which are healthier for everyone. As feminism challenges restrictive gender norms, improvements in women's access to health care, reproductive rights, and protection from violence have positive effects on everyone's life expectancy and well-being, especially children.


3. What did you like about the third talk? 

The wonderfully restrained sense of deep disappointment underlying Chimamanda's narrative reminded me of how similar the histories of many African countries are, how passionately people believed in ideas that would disappoint them, in people that would betray them, in futures that would elude them. 


4. Are these talks bringing any significant change in your way of looking literature and life?

OVERARCHING concepts which relates to our lives. Although every book is special in its own unique way, each of Adichie's novels circulate around two common themes: the concept that love isuniversal and humane there must be flaws , and that every perspective isdifferent therefore every perspective deserves a listen .Instead of sticking to just one or two perspectives, Adichie goes above and beyond by using  distinct characters' perspectives while keeping to a third person omnipotent narrator. In addition, certain plot devices are revealed in the very end, building lots of tension throughout the novel.


Thank you...
