The danger of single stories

[smittenbyu]

Over the last two decades of living abroad, because I look different from the crowd and my country of origin is easily spottable, have been somehow the representative for my country's actions. And am sure I am not the only one. I think at some point everyone who travels abroad becomes the country's storyteller. Some questions are just ridiculous, some are sincere curiosity. I had for a while come up with a compilation of them here.

I ran into this video at TED.com and she has a message that is just so perfectly shared!
