	“The single story creates stereotypes, and the problem with stereotypes is not that they are untrue, but that they are incomplete. They make one story become the only story.”
Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
In Nigeria, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie&#8217;s novel Half of a Yellow Sun has helped inspire new, cross-generational communication about the Biafran war. In this and in her [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Whitney, you made me contemplate the difference between love and happiness vs. death and destruction
Like we all want a soul mate but I do not want to sell my soul to mate
I mean don't get me wrong, I want a woman that I can love to death but don't kill me in the process
See in my artistic mind, I can picture the first time that gradual use became a lifetime addiction
From sporadic to habitual
What did it do to you that kept you returning because while you turned to it, we awaited your comeback
We wanted to see you back in your shining glory
We wanted a happy end to the story
But you've reminded us that life doesn't always have a fairytale ending and sometimes your biggest moments is the one you've had in the beginning]]></description>
