Answer:
1. Adichie realized that her single story was not her only story. She recognized the need for balance. She also realized that single stories created stereotypes and robbed people of their dignity.
2. Creating awareness through the media that showcases various aspects of a society can prevent the danger of a single story.
Power also has the ability to prevent stereotypes in the minds of people.
Personally observing the culture of a people can prevent single stories.
Explanation:
Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie had several instances where she had a single story. As a child, she experienced hardships while growing but she refused to accept that as her single-story because she knew that she grew up under a loving family. This enabled her to have a balance.
Experiencing the culture of a people firsthand just as she experienced the culture of the Mexicans firsthand enabled her to overcome the stereotypes she had about them. A powerful society is also less likely to be susceptible to a single story. This is seen in her views of the American government which was not lopsided.
