Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie

She is Beyoncé's favorite feminist, an award winning novelist, and a TED talk sensation. But this Nigerian woman has more stories to tell. As Bey said: "She was elegant and her words were powerful and honest. Her definition of a feminist described my own feeling: equality of the sexes as it pertains to human rights, equal pay and sexuality. She called the men in her family feminists, too, because they acknowledged the need for equality."
