    Her confidence and humility, is so wonderful to watch. It is a hard scale to balance - not to go one way to arrogance, or the other to self loathing - but she does it so well with grace.

    Dignified to have you as a sister, Dear Chimamanda. Your critical discussions, the spectacle of your poise brings such bravado in my entire existence. Wish to meet you someday.

    Accept/ embrace the inevitable that we are different/diverse. Great message from Ms Adichie.

      No she's not. She is herself we have so many great women who are very very cerebral in Nigeria.

      She is pleased for having penetrated one of the most lucrative markets where it comes to sustaining this false narrative regarding patriarchy. You can see she spent the beginning of her speech by advertising. They are all in on it, and everyone in here will have their cut. I actually think there is money to be made in blaming men for everything and as a business person I find my morals coming in the way. This is something I could do.

    Would have been amazing and abit funny at the same time if she gave her speech with a real Nigerian/west African accent behind it, like am very grateful oooo !!

    • @Wils0n_
      @Wils0n_ 2 роки тому +1

      In other words this is a fake Nigerian/West African accent?
      First off, the idea of of one single Nigerian accent is preposterous. There is no such thing as a Nigerian accent, much less a West African one.
      Nigeria is so diverse that there are many regional accents based on ethnicities, and some also based on social class.
      In Chimamanda's case, being the daughter of a professor, her accent is that of an educated upper middle class Nigerian. You will find many like hers in the Cities like Abuja and Lagos.

      I feel your comment soo incomplete or infact sooo empty cause this speech is way more than just inspiring. But I guess that's just the way you see it.
