Yesterday, author and scholar @DrIbram joined Cloe Shasha Brooks and me for a conversation about dismantling racism and creating a more just society. So appreciated his frank and thoughtful insight. ted.com/talks/ibram_x_…

Honored to be this week's TED Radio Hour guest and chat with Manoush Zomorodi about some of our incredible TED speakers. These talks about racial injustice are powerful on any day and the messages need to be amplified now more than ever.

This summer, our team produced a series of live convos for our TED2020 conference. I had the honor of hosting our final chat w/ activist (+ personal hero) Malala Yousafzai. She talked about girls' ed, her vision for the future + much more. Forever inspired by her. ted.com/talks/malala_y…

Excellent TED Talks conversation with Maria Van Kerkhove moderated by Whitney Pennington Rodgers. I hope 'never again' will be inspiration for many to invest in preparedness to protect the world from future pandemics. #ProudToBeWHO go.ted.com/mariavankerkho…

Wonderful to be joined by acclaimed journalist Christiane Amanpour for a TED Membership event. Her insight on all that’s happening in Iran and Ukraine is so sharp and her guidance on what each of us can do is invaluable. A must watch.
