12 minutes that could change the way you see the world

by Tim on December 7, 2009

I am subscribed to TedTalks for the wealth of inspiration and ideas that come from the phenomenal conference. Every once in a while there is a talk that stands above the rest and I have to share with others. Today I saw one such talk.

Sunitha Krishnan has dedicated her life to rescuing women and children from sex slavery, a multimilion-dollar global market. In this courageous talk, she tells three powerful stories, as well as her own, and calls for a more humane approach to helping these young victims rebuild their lives.

The most striking words for me:

Don’t tell me 100 ways you can’t not respond to this problem. Can you apply your mind to that one way that you can respond to the problem?

Please take 12 minutes of your day to watch this and ask yourself what you can do to make a difference in the world.
