TED2011: Sarah Kay ’10

Sarah Kay ’10, spoken word poet and founder of Project V.O.I.C.E., spoke at the annual TED conference in Long Beach, CA two weeks ago.  TED holds annual conferences around the world, inviting speakers ranging from Madeleine Albright to Bill Gates to give presentations about their respective fields.  In her talk, entitled “If I had a daughter…”, Kay performed two original poems, “B” and “Hiroshima.”  TED, which just uploaded videos from this year’s Long Beach conference online, is featuring Kay’s talk on the front page of its website.
