What does it take to build a national movement? In a captivating conversation with TEDWomen curator Pat Mitchell, Marian Wright Edelman reflects on her path to founding the Children's Defense Fund in 1973 — from the early influence of growing up in the segregated American South to her activism with Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. — and shares how growing older has only made her more radical.

+Queen Elizabeth I thats what everyone should say!
TED talks are so inspirational and I always find joy in watching them. The way they deliver the speeches are incredible. Beautiful
I find joy in watching them too. They’re a gift 🙂
+THE AMERICAN PATRIOT this one is left wing crap, too. She’s implicitly advocating for socialist policies.
Romanski No it’s not. Wanting to end child poverty in America ?
It’s a bullshit story she is telling. It’s so telling. TED is just a crap program. TED doesn’t deliver speeches or stories, they invite professionals who are real good in doing them. Shill better next time ya.
Multiply such a lifetime with 1 billion. It would be heaven.
Poverty are among the most useless debates in the world, poverty will ALWAYS exist and only grow as the rich gets sinfully richer.
True,but that doesn’t mean we should stop talking about it or stop making efforts for slightest change.
What if there were a way to prevent the extreme concentration of wealth?
+blue_tetris Forget Marxism, communism are the best option of eradicating values and ethnic brand of humans. It’s meant for genocide only.
To end child poverty more effectively. More jobs, and much easier access to employment. Far too many barriers are put in place, keeping parents poor. Also 12hr working days are killing the family unit. If any parent is required to be out of the house for 14hrs a day, just to survive. Crazy
Stop having children
Get those kids a job and a paycheck no wonder they’re broke
Yes Ma’am !!
Yes Ma’am !!
Yes Ma’am !!
Yes Ma’am !!
Yes Ma’am !!
Yes Ma’am !!
Thank You.. is not enough for all you have done.
TED platform has no credibility left, every video is either political propaganda or virtue signaling. I’m just not sure which one is this video.
