After reading and finiding out that Papa owned a successful newspaper business I was initially shocked. After rethinking over what I had read I remembered that feeling and imediately thought about the TED talk we watched with Adichie in it and about western misconceptions about African culture. When I first read that Papa owned a newpaper business I was a bit shocked and had never thought about Nigeria even having newspapers that are distributed. Then I was also shocked that his company was so successful and official. This is a common western misconception that I picked up on after I went through it first hand.
