A "Single" Story

After watching this video i can say that i think everyone is guilty of doing this, i know i have beacuse when i think of africa i think of poor african americans living in little shacks and barely being able to eat. I think this way because i hear it on TV when there talking about help a child in help in africa. I think once you hear something enough your going believe it weather or not its the truth. I think instead of the media betraying a bad image i think good things should be said about africa, south american or where ever cause there are good things that happen and go on in thoughs countrys not just bad things. More than i single story should be said and heard about thing and anyone!
