Blind Society | Sachi Goel | Être TED-Ed Club |
|
How do we view each other...and why? In this talk, thirteen year-old Sachi Goel examines stereotypes, unconscious bias and how students of any age can reframe their views of others. Drawing on theories like linguistics and semiotics, Sachi brings the work of Ferdinand de Saussure into the modern-day conversation, helping all of us understand how we can better view, and connect with, each other.
Sachi Goel is an incoming high school freshman and a rising girl power leader. Her work on gender parity and stereotypes led to a new branch of the Être curriculum, encouraging women and girls everywhere to break through barriers by telling their stories. Facilitator: Illana Raia TED-Ed, TED's education initiative, inspires tomorrow's TED speakers and future leaders by supporting students in discovering, developing and sharing their big ideas in the form of short, TED-style talks.
