"We Can Make A Difference"

Please enjoy these videos of Taylor Mali. I had heard of him before, but recently saw that he was a guest at this years TED (Technology, Entertainment, Design) Conferences normally held in Long Beach and Oxford.

By the way - TED is an amazing thing. 
You should check out the site through the link above if you get a chance.

Bio from his website:

Taylor Mali is one of the most well-known poets to have emerged from the poetry slam movement and one of the few people in the world to have no job other than that of poet. Eloquent, accessible, passionate, and often downright hilarious, Mali studied drama in Oxford with members of The Royal Shakespeare Company and puts those skills of presentation to work in all his performances. He was one of the original poets to appear on the HBO series Russell Simmons Presents Def Poetry and was the "Armani-clad villain" of Paul Devlin's 1997 documentary film SlamNation.
