"Diversity of hues, form and shape enricheth and adorneth the garden, and heighteneth the effect thereof. In like manner, when divers shades of thought, temperament and character, are brought together under the power and influence of one central agency, the beauty and glory of human perfection will be revealed." ~ Baha'i Thought
What she's really trying to say is diversity of thought is okay unless you're a white Republican Male that owns a business, or if you're in the top 1% then you're too "powerful" to have any say in the current political climate.
What's she's saying is many don't have the luxury of their own independent thought, whether through oppression by a small group, or via the fact that in our society the .1% distributes thought to the rest of us. In that our thoughts are highly influenced by where we go, what we buy what we do, and most of that is owned(controlled) by a tiny tiny group.
@@MtHoodMagic In that she's right. I just hope she herself doesn't believe in the corrects thoughts we're supposed to believe in that were sent from the top down. I find it odd though, for rich white men to support companies that send out the message that straight white rich men are the cause of everyone's problems. In my opinion, rich and powerful people's of al backgrounds involved in politics and corporations as a whole do cause many problems for us all, but not every issue is their fault.
Born in a country, the only country which treats Women with respect and calls it mother land and not father land like developed nations... you are trying to paint an ugly picture...
I think her speech is so important
This has to be one of the most compelling and profound ted talks I’ve ever listened to. Thank you! 😊
respect
What a wonderful talk on diversity of thought!
It started out good then became a story about her.

Is that a typo? Does it mean immortality instead of immorality? Honest question.
Wow, that's quite a typo in the slide.

Great subject. Poor execution.
Had to view this TED Talk for a class. This was pretty horrible and confusing. Nothing made any sense.

It started okay but went downhill.

“Really” poor. Did you give away all your millions?
