    Excellent thought provoking talk. Was looking for a video to share with my organisation, and I think I have found it.

      You may want to think again. You will end up hurting your organization with this shallow, nieve, misleading, and destructive rhetoric. This is not a path to a utopian society because the policies needed to be implemented for D.I.E. could never account for the trillions of intersectional differences each individual possesses. The best policies stem from MLK's vision to treat others according to the content of their character. Otherwise, there are plenty of sociopathic characters who will happily take advantage of your flawed system for their own tyrannical objectives.

    It's a bit off topic, I apologize. One of our engineers explained me how to connect all dots with only ONE line. He said: Just take a very big pencil. There you are :-)

    I feel so bad that race is important in the USA. In East Africa, my little 3-year-old mixed color son is the same as everybody else. I'm the same as everybody else. Some people, who don't know me, see me different but to me, and my friends, I'm like everyone else.

      Race is very central in Europe and other spaces where power structures are defined by whiteness as universal. Look at South Afrika!
