Famed Nigerian writer, Chimamanda Adichie recently spoke at the Royal African Society’s first annual literary festival in London. Among topics of discussion were homosexuality in African societies, about which Adichie says “Being gay is not something white people brought to us. Africans have been gay for centuries.” She also asked "How will history depict the African woman?" and defended her use of English (as opposed to any indigenous language) in her novels by stating “English is mine… it has become mine.” Hit the link below to read more of Adichie's timely and insightful arguments on Okayafrica.
