In the first video more focused on importance of story and literature. Chimamanda explained her background interesting way and she also shared her experiences. I think she became first reader than she became known writer so readings generally leads to creative writing. Same thing happen with her. She progressed towards writing literature but she faced problem of racism because of She has black skin and came from middle class family. In the beginning of the video she mentioned briefly about her childhood. Moreover She is female writer so that she faced tolerate from society and history also prove that tings somewhere. I think writing became more difficult task for herself but she proves herself with proudly as a writer. She mentioned one another thing was that she went to America how she faced problem there.
In the second video she talked on female characters and feminism. She focused on reality of the world so that she remains into our mind. She shared as a black skin woman which types of problem and issues facing by her? Through the gender there were taken differences into caring and growing. She shared her school experience where she rejected as a monitor into the class.
Into the third video she talked about students of Harvard and Cambridge University where she talked about writing journey. She guided that If we have skill of writing so that without hesitate try to write and try to broken every boundary. At the end I have to say that as a black skin she representation of black culture through herself.
