Questions:

2. Chris Abani tells us how his mother taught people in rural areas. How is learning in a rural area different from learning in a city such in Barcelona?
3. Chris Abani says: “we're building gods that have gone rampant, and it's time we started knocking them down” What does he mean by that?
