Igbo spiritualism on display, her parents did a good job to show her the real pillar of life, do all you should do ,keep your hands clean ,be yourself and keep searching for more good things then you remain flawless .She is an Eze Nwanyi ,her spirit vibrates in harmony with the universe.
A conscious decision to not mimic a North American accent has been important to me, because I truly believe my eloquence is part of speaking in the accent that is most familiar to me. Thank you.
The feelings you get from watching, listening and reading from "your own" who is not just only exceptionally excellent in what she does, but very humble and natural in her dispositions. Proud of you and all that you represent!
I listened to Chinamanda’s Yale speech and now I am hooked. She’s motivating and inspirational. In addition, she is beautiful, poised, intelligent and her spirit, voice and thought processes reminds me of Maya Angelou. I’ve started searching for and listening to all her speeches. My plan is to read and/or listen to her books.
Absolutely.. an amazing 💎... gem... She’s a reminder that clarity and truth are essential ingredients for Humanism... We are drawn to her and her physical beauty and fashion style because we recognize in our souls the need for Clarity and truth..💥💫 Truth begets power... and humanity!! We’re regaining our humanity.. thank you Queen Chimamanda..🌹💎 for reminding .. teaching and prodding usi...that we not only have a place but are the place..🌟🔥
I can listen to her because I love the calm and consistency in her speech. People have a tendency to talk so fast these days and one can hardly comprehend what they are saying. I have loved this discussion, it has be enriching in all angles.
Great that she has maintained her home accent and proud to do so. I had this expérience when I went to England from thé Caribbean to study. After 2yrs I returned home on holiday and noticed the différence in my way of speaking. I immediately reverted to my island accent and have never reverted back th the British accent. I think accents are beautiful and make the world a more interesting ' colorful' place. Be confident people, be proud of your original accent like Ms Adichie !
That passage speaks quite a lot. When I read that passage I said to myself, wow! This is the very first time I hear the most honest and real life in America for a non American.
I like that she has given a valid and right reason that the parents have. So, the young adult knows that it is not that the parents don't want you to be, they have just lived long enough to know that you must pay your bills, that you must survive.
I am definitely eager and willing to join the bible study and like Chimamanda have always believed that challenging the misuse of religion to believers requires deep understanding of the bible and challenging the interpretation that is often used to oppress and disenfranchise
She is so powerful & beautiful 👑💖I wish she was around when I was younger. Writing & reading was my passion. Now I work a depressing job with dumb bigots
In Nigerian, there seems to be what I call reverse racism. Nigerians will first help a white person than a fellow black person in same situation. My opinion
I will say to you that , do not forget that in general , black people carry in their ancestral DNA the ability to welcome a person into their home has a sign of a fellow human, including their own people but because they was thought by the colonial to treat others than their own with kindness and love , they have become use to applying such rules that they forgot about treating each other with the same respect. Never forget that when you lack of knowledge about who you are , anyone can come arround you and fill in that empty space in your brain that waiting to be fed with information. Thank you, sisters and brothers around the world.
When a writer gets God, religion and Christianity much more than many pastors. Wolves in sheep clothing they are. Material wealth and prosperity don't define God's goodness at all! God's grace and blessings are defined in Christ alone! The blessing is in the spirit, the blessing is spiritual. Nothing more. But greedy preachers tell you you have to 'convert' the spiritual wealth to physical. Please don't mind them! God is good, God gives, but His blessing(s) are spiritual and spiritual alone. God bless CNA!
@@victorysampson I meant that boys are more confident and certain about what they think(even when they need to entertain a little doubt) whereas girls are more doubtful and confused (even when they need to be damn certain).

Start by showing them that Jesus was despised then because he did one thing. He interacted with women and children. A despised category then. He kept constantly showing this society that women are humans. They should be revered and are men done. He held women and men both in high regard as he saw them as human beings.

I think I understand her view on transgender women. I am advanced in age and not too clued up about gender alternatives but the undisputable fact is that transgenders started off as BOYS and were not subjected to the subtle innuendos that young girls are. We start earlier to socialise girls differently so if there is a voice for transforming let us not overload it with transgender women.

She uses it because she is giving an opinion which may or may not be correct. So it is left for you to ponder upon it and decide if you are to settle on it
She gets these honors because she is diligent, consistent and brilliant. No one can take those distinctions away from her. Hands down!
I could hear her talk all day! So proud of her.
Same
Same
I agree.
I do so everyday. Since I'm free
I love how she doesn't try to fake an accent, so eloquent and articulate, she beautiful and intelligent so simply
I swear!!
Exactly my thoughts! Just come and hear people that stayed in the United States for few years, you'll think they were born here.
I like her!
Yeah
Exactly!

Every time Chimamanda speaks, it's a whole vibe. 🌋😍
When the academics here talk in jargon, Aduchie talks in the language of every human. She is vibrant, no pretense - a great writer.

i should have read this when i first got to the us for school --everything she is saying is true 1000%
Tell me about itttttt-right?
That passage speaks quite a lot. When I read that passage I said to myself, wow! This is the very first time I hear the most honest and real life in America for a non American.
Her voice is so soothing and nurturing 🌸
She inspires me. Although, the only things I have in common with her (for now) is that I am Nigerian and I left medical school 🤦😭
Wow... I hope ur leaving the Medical sch is a good News like hers...
I like that she has given a valid and right reason that the parents have. So, the young adult knows that it is not that the parents don't want you to be, they have just lived long enough to know that you must pay your bills, that you must survive.
So proud of her. Education is very important and empowering for the African Diaspora.
UNDENIABLY!!!!
I love her and her writing and for waking me up with the way she views the world because I view the world and human similarly.
Chimamanda, a prolific writer that promotes Africaness in her work. She surely knows her onions.
I am definitely eager and willing to join the bible study and like Chimamanda have always believed that challenging the misuse of religion to believers requires deep understanding of the bible and challenging the interpretation that is often used to oppress and disenfranchise
She is DEEP. There's so much in her and she can't exhaust her numerous selves.
Her keen psychological observance of human & cultural interaction is especially brilliantly displayed in Americanah( which i'm now in the mist of).
Hair is political, clever girl, I listen her all day long.
Amazing and eloquent welcome and introduction. Then followed by the incredible author and activist herself. Thank you.
She is so powerful & beautiful 👑💖I wish she was around when I was younger. Writing & reading was my passion. Now I work a depressing job with dumb bigots
You can change it
An interesting interview. Keep it up Ngozi Adichie
Stanley you are interesting, but please shut up.
This is such an amazing conversation. Honest and candid!
am very proud of you chimamanda as an African.
She is a wonderful blessing of Biafra in diaspora , may God bless and add to her days .
Iseeee iseeee iseee
Thank you, great talk as always Ms. Adichie!
I was so engrossed, I had to finish the video before going home from work.
She is a blessing to my soul each time I listen to her overflow of wisdom that comes from her
I loved her rant about the dangers of the inauthenticity trajectory of modern academia.
Congratulations Mr Aboo, you were a good teacher.
She's just so perfect 🥰
this woman is so amazing,I just want to be like her
Brilliant 👏🏾👏🏾
Nice one ,I love to see positive women building the society with their feminine ideology.
Ms. Adichie, keep shining forever
Good advise. My parents don't have any idea of my wish to be a novelist😄😄
Thank you for teaching me so much !!
Such an insightful conversation with Chimamanda. I loved her problematizing of intersectionalism too.
I love her♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Whenever I listen to her, I’m proud of where I come from.
Thanks for the advice. I was too financially obsessed whenever I wanted to write.
She speaks do well. She weaves her words like magic.
She finished them 💯 all the times always 💯💪🏽💪🏽
Amazing African writer and woman
What a woman. No.. rather what a human!
But she is a woman
A truly inspiring discourse, enjoyed every second of it
I admire her dedication to the field of writing.
I Love her outfits. They are always Amazing and Unique.
she has achieved so much; her name is one every speaker from every race tries to pronounce correctly!...e dey choke lol
LOVE THIS WOMAN, THE MORE THEY EXPOSE HER
THE MORE BEAUTIFUL SHE GETS,, ONE LOVE,HAVE A GOOD DAY,,,.
A most exquisite one from Adichie.
In Nigerian, there seems to be what I call reverse racism. Nigerians will first help a white person than a fellow black person in same situation. My opinion
It’s true, lingering trauma of colonisation
Gosh
I consider that as respect, i maybe wrong though.
Really?? I am not sure this is right.
