  • Tai Simpson works in anti-racism education and community organizing. She calls on her non-native audience to embody “old ways” when voting, teaching, and living in the world. Tai is a warrior and storyteller working in anti-racism education and community organizing. She is a direct descendant of Chief Redheart of the Nez Perce tribe and a tireless advocate for social justice. Tai is well-loved and supported by a four-legged, amber-eyed "Gunner." She enjoys sunshine, dogs, and wine. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

    Connected to the undercooked but not the overcooked- there was a bit of anti-blackness in this omission. I understood that she was talking to "assumedly" a predominantly white crowd- and she was trying to bridge the colonizer and colonized- but the fact that she talks bout the overcooked but does not reference it in the connection is odd.

      She did at the end, but I do understand on some level what you mean. I thought about that too when she mentioned that the undercooked are Coyote's creation too. I, of course, believe in God's creation. But the same concept goes. We're all part of the same creation. It is sad that it has to be said for some people--white or not.

      Dog it was an attack on everyone except the “perfectly cooked” people. She literally called herself the master race and we all just sat there and let it happen cause she thinks that she’s oppressed.

    Oooh God, I have never heard someone put it so well, we are all from the same creator and its our duty to protect that which gives us life, nature.

    Tai, what a beautiful display of sharing with us your ancestral teachings of being and knowing and doing. Beliefs that belong to our history and should rightfully be embedded into new (American as it is known as) culture. Wow, keep shining, you are here to share Indigenous spiritual teachings to the world..I believe that anyway.

    Hey Ted talks! Why did you block the ghislaine lecture? Copyright infringement??? Seems a bit suspect. Also, the comments are turned off. What is the secrecy about?

    I wish I could have attended this presentation in person. How spiritually nurishing it would have been to stand and walk out right around 0:36.

    The creation story you tell is the same as Blackfoot.... Cree origins are a bit different that I was taught. I won't get into it to take away the teachings provided...Blackfoot teachings are so valuable to what humans are and can be to society .
