We Should All Be Feminists by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie

informative inspiring reflective fast-paced

5.0

"You can have ambition, but not too much. You should aim to be successful but not too successful, otherwise you will threaten the man."
.
What this book (essay) lacks in length, it makes up for in power.
.
A short and impactful read that highlights the misconceptions about feminism and looks into feminism in relation to Nigerian culture.
.
Chimamanda recalls memories and stories from her life. She exposes how unconscious behaviour, perhaps out of habit or routine, can reinforce this sexist patriarchy and identifies what we can do to break it.
