Martin Luther King dreams that the people of this world will not judge others by “the color of their skin, but by the content of their character.” He claims that the world will not be able to shatter the “Shackles of prejudice, half-truths, and downright ignorance” while judging others by their skin color or culture, therefore we should let go of this rotten habit and view others through a clean sheet. The best way to assure we don't fall into this habit is by believing that “Culture does not make people, people make culture”, Chimamanda Adichie explains during her TED talk. She claims that this is also how a single story gets created. “Show people as one thing, as only one thing, over and over again, and that is what they become.” In Adichie’s TED talk, she explains how the news and storys force a single story. The story of Adichie and her roommate proves this claim. Adichie described how her roommate had felt sorry for her even before she met her. Her roommate has been shown the single story of catastrophe and pity and not the happy sides of Africa. She had seen the news and war photos of Africa, thinking that that's all that ever took place in Africa. Adichie explains how you can prevent this by simply asking questions. “If you don't understand, ask questions. If you're uncomfortable about asking questions, say you are uncomfortable about asking questions and then ask anyway.”, Adichie says. By asking questions you can get around both prejudice and single stories, so ask away!
