The Captain Spock, Zombies, and Chimamanda Adichie Connection

 I'm sometimes judgmental, absolutely touchy, always mercurial (how's that for an oxymoron), and, I have frequently  felt, oddly for being such a Judgy Judgerson, open-minded about life and other people's views, perceptions, or "truths" as the case may be.  I may think someone is stupid for wearing a blue bucket on his head, but I just shake my head, figure it's their right to be stupid as long as it doesn't affect me personally, and  walk  faster hoping the "crazy person" doesn't stop to talk to me.

   After viewing this presentation by (okay forgive me if this is incorrectly spelled and I have no idea how to say this) Chimamanda Adichie about "The Danger of a Single Story", I am not so sure of my objectivity, my open-mindedness, of people, their motives, and my world view as a whole.
