The TEDxOronocoBayPark community serves to foster learning, inspiration and wonder – and provoke conversations that matter.

Our commitment to equality and progress remains unwavering. We believe that Black Lives Matter and that each of us has a role to play in opposing racism, injustice and oppression. TEDx talks have inspired conversations amongst our team on how we can further evolve as a community. We welcome your ideas and reactions as well – these conversations matter.

In that spirit, our team wanted to share the following TED playlist: “Talks to help you understand racism in America.”

It is our hope this collection of powerful ideas can be a resource to understand the roots of racism, its painful consequences -- and how we can combat it together.

TEDxOronocoBayPark speaker alum, Councilmember John Chapman, also shared a relevant talk at our 2019 event: “Black History Matters.”
