In this one that I honestly can't stop thinking about since I saw it for the first time a few weeks ago, the author Chimamanda Adichie gives a fascinating talk about stereotypes and the power of story. She's a beautiful speaker, and it's loaded with insights and truths - watch it! (It's 19 minutes - which I know sounds long, but it is time well worth it.)
Chimamanda Adichie: The danger of a single story
I really feel that's so much of what this blog is all about - showing that there are multiple stories of what it means to be a GLBTQ Teen.
As Chimamanda says,
"Stories Matter."
Yes, they do.
Have a great weekend,
Namaste,
Lee
