She is also a good speaker. Her three most popular talks.

2) We should all be feminist
3) Talk on importance of truth in post truth Era.

In his topic she talked about danger of a single story. She talk about her family, her childhood writing, her view about the literature.

She read and write only about British story and white characters.
First she simple immitate the things and reading about the thing actually she found around herself. As we found that she simply speak that the thinks she never found around her, to write about herself. This thing shows the denger of single reading that she wrote the things she never feel. It also shows the power of colonialism.

She wrote a novel about man who among all the things who beats his wife. One journalist advised her then she called herself a happy feminist. One academic Nigerian lady called her that feminist was not her culture or religion, it was an African culture.

She talk and write about patriarchy culture that people strongly believe woman always give respect man, it is our culture. Human beings make culture neither culture make human beings. So she concluded fact is not our culture but culture mean dancing and singing and etc.

Thank you ............
