Presentation transcript:

Thesis Samples: Adichie Speech In “The Danger of a Single Story,” Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie effectively convinces her audience of the negative effects of cultural ignorance and prejudice through appeals to ethos and pathos by interweaving the metaphor of the “single story” with humorous anecdotes to offer a message of empathy and open-mindedness. In her famous TED talk, “The Danger of a Single Story,” Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie used rhetorical appeals to ethos and logos to persuade her audience of the prevalence and danger of stereotypes. Adichie successfully achieves this purpose by using personal anecdotes that reveal her experiences both as a victim of prejudice and as a person who harbored these stereotypes against others. In the speech, “The Danger of a Single Story,” famed writer and self-proclaimed storyteller Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie appeals to ethos and pathos by urging her audience to reject the toxic prejudice inherent in the metaphor of a “single story” as it undermines the complexity of various cultures and societies.
