No les había contado, pero durante mi semana en #TED2024 en Vancouver, tuve el privilegio de ser invitado para formar parte de un documental para TEDCountdown sobre 'Sustainable Food' 🎬🍫

Proud to be a TED Fellows every day, and indebted to an organization and community that helped me expand my definition of me to unforeseen proportions, embraced and rewarded my awkwardness, and changed my life forever ❤️ No self is final.

More highlights: Hugging old & new friends. Fellows Park and the sound sculptures by dr julie freeman, artist. The BEST main stage talks were 💯 by Fellows – my dear friends Aziz Abu Sarah (in conversation w/ מעוז معوز Maoz), Anjan Sundaram, Dr./Prof. Keolu Fox (w/ Clifford Kapono) knocked it out of the park.

I had the immense JOY and honor to curate Night of the Fellows at TED2024 – a table talks evening like no other. Thank you to the amazing @tedfellow team for the trust, friendship and collaboration, and to my fellow fellows for the brilliance ❤️

#TED2024 was a dream. Not awake yet. Thrilled and SO grateful to have garnered excitement and support for a couple of new visions and daring ideas, and can’t wait to roll the proverbial sleeves over at Fine Acts. 💪 TED Fellows TED Talks

“You said you’re not only crying for your parents, you’re also crying for the people in Gaza … And that you do not want what happened to you to be justifying anyone taking revenge. it’s so much easier to want revenge. But you are a brave man.” Abu Sarah summarized.

“We met only once before October 7, but you were among the first to reach out, to send your condolences,” Inon told Abu Sarah, about the loss of his parents. “I will always love you for being there for me.”
