[Applause] What if I told you that the most dangerous kind of racism isn't shot in the streets, but whispered in the classrooms, hallways, even living rooms. You know, the kind of someone says, "Relax. It's just a joke. Don't take it personal." Or friends, it's okay. I've heard that so many times.And every single time it made me wonder why the joke had to be at my expense. I can't even count how many times someone has commented on my hair, my skin, or the food I eat. Always followed by, "Come on, it's just ...

At like many other people at our school, I volunteer at Eagle Ridge Hospital. I'm in the PATH dining assistance program where my job is to mainly listen to the patients and hear what they have to say and just engage in conversation with them. I'm assigned to E2B and for those who are the same, you know, it's really not sunshine and rainbows in that ward.It usually hosts older patients. Some who stay for a couple of days, some who stay for a couple of weeks, and some who stay much longer. However, regardless ...

we want you to speak on tessellation. I was like, yeah, cool. Where does that sounded very out of space to me? And then they said, no, it's patterns. It's finding patterns in most random things that form a bigger picture in a tree. And I was like, that's easy. But where do I go to look for patterns now? let alone in random things. But the more I looked and the more I thought about it quite seriously. I realized that human beings are obsessed with patterns. Now what is this obsession that human beings have w ...

Say a sentence. Any sentence. Now change your accent just a little.Soften a vowel. Drop a consonant. Make it British or Spanish or something in between.Now ask yourself, did that sentence feel smarter or stranger, more trustworthy, more foreign. The truth is, we don't just hear what people say. We hear where they're from. We hear where we think that they belong.Accents are a little bit like passports. They carry assumptions, credibility, class, intelligence, even kindness. And yet, like passports, they can ...

Have you ever felt like you're not enough. Not good enough, smart enough, successful enough, or maybe you've been told you're too much, too loud, too bold, too ambitious. It's like you just can't win.That feeling that something's missing. It's not because there's anything wrong with you or that you are in any way lacking. It's because you're human.And like every one of us, you keep getting caught in what I call the human trap. What is the human trap. Well, before we define it, let's talk about the experienc ...

[Applause] I want you all to think about what you were doing at 18. Learning to drive, planning that holiday to Magalof with your mates, falling in love. At 18, my patient was told they had just months to live.and that they'd never walk again. Cancer had crept from their lungs to their bones and into their spine, stealing their movement and bodily functions inch by inch. The unspoken message was clear.Stay in bed. Keep comfortable. This is the beginning of the end.But that's not what happened. They stood. T ...

There were two moments in my life when I felt absolutely shattered. July 2010, I had just finished my engineering. 15 companies walked into my college for placements.I had a BTech with honors. I had the grades, the certificates, and yet not a single company selected me. And suddenly I found myself sitting at home jobless for almost a year.The second was exactly 10 years later. July 2020. I had just hung up my uniform after serving for almost a decade in the armed forces.The world outside was under lockdown. ...
