Nigerian writer Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie’s 2009 TedTalk, “The Danger of a Single Story,” highlighted “one-story” thinking, wherein the first story people hear about others becomes their unshakeable baseline understanding. In illustration, the chapter traces forward the European One Story of Headless Monsters started by Herodotus, as its damage moved from Africa to the Americas, through permutations in Aeschylus, Virgil, Diodorus Siculus, Pliny the Elder, Iohn Lok, Walter Raleigh, Carolus Linnaeus, John Smith, Shakespeare, Lafitau, and Darwin.
