A great video about ideology / storytelling

One thing I like about this video is that Chimamanda is a great storyteller. We should be taking notes just on her formal skills as a speaker! Also the stuff that she is saying — the points she is actually making, I thought were similar to some of the stuff that came our of our group work on the relationship between stories, ideology, identity, stereotypes etc.

The Pervert's Guide to Ideology - What is Ideology?





Do you remember we watched this clip from Marxist-Psychoanalytical philosopher Slavoj Zizek? We never got a chance to chat about it so go ahead and post comments if you have something to say. Someone once called him the 'rockstar of philosophy.' I like him because he is interested in pretty much everything and is very entertaining to watch. It's worth checking out more of his videos I recon. If you find something good (or something awful) post it along with a comment to tell us what you think about it.
