Will we someday learn from the past? On times where racism grows again, we can learn how to fight it. Very simply actually, just by SPEAKING UP. When you hear insane theories about the supremacy of certain origins toward others, act, react, but do not stay silent! Reverse their theories and be on the good side of History.

Dan Aufseesser spoke at TEDxEcoleHôtelièreLausanne ; EHL October 2016

Dan is a 23-year-old Swiss student at Ecole Hôtelière de Lausanne. He has travelled the world since he was a child and continues exploring new places every year. This has fuelled a deep curiosity and respect for different cultures and traditions. He has lived in Switzerland, Hong-Kong, Israel, Canada and England where he was able to see on a daily basis how cultures could clash as well as nourish each other.

He has been interested and concerned by the rise of populism and racism around the world and has tried to create conversation with people to fight this phenomenon. Today he addresses this issue in front of a diverse crowd to spark a well needed discussion.
