Answer:

A. British and American stories are more readily available across the world, while African writers and their stories are less accessible in other countries.

Explanation:

In "The Danger of a Single Story," by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, she recounted how as a little girl she read British and American stories that talked about things she could not readily identify with such as the snow, the eating of apples, and discussions of the weather. She attributed the reason for her not reading African books to the fact that they were not readily accessible compared to their American and British counterparts that could be readily found anywhere.

The discovery of African writers like Chinua Achebe and Camara Laye helped Adichie to recognize that it was possible to write about things that were relatable to her and she began to write them.

Read this excerpt from the article.

There's a relationship between low self-esteem and negative portrayals of racial groups. There's also an association between poor self-esteem and the lack of portrayals of a particular group. Others have found that media misrepresentations of ethnic groups can cause confusion about aspects of their identity among children of these groups.
