    That’s why most farms are owned by corporations and all seed sellers too. But when we starve it will be them we eat first.

    Should is a wish for the past to change. Control is a byproduct of fear. I wish to trust my food not control. Everything else is correct. Okay. Trust you 💛 it is golden 💛 ✨️
    Self-trust is the language of everything ✨️

    Sustainable? Natives had to be nomadic in order to allow regeneration of the food sources they absolutely wiped out seasonally. Both in the warmer seasons and during the winter. Native Americans would wipe entire areas clean of game and wild edible plants. They didnt sow gardens or maintain animals for food until nearly 100 years after the first “white people” made contact in north east Canada.

    In the US they learned how to grow foods to survive winter from the spanish who pilaged the southern continent which forced most tribes north over 200 years before so called white man came to the state of Virginia

      No. Humans have been in North America for thousands of years. You’ve heard of the Bering Land Bridge?

    So if we all just lived illness free, moving from place to place, it would be better. Or is it just a plot to add Native to what European countries knew since the 1300s.

    Consumer mindset destroyed healthy living and taking care of our environment. Dude speaks wise words. Its a treasury to reconnect with that indigenous heritage that understood nature so well.

By 2030, nearly half the world’s young people will be African. Yet for decades, the continent’s learning crisis was treated with systems unfit for reality on the ground. Social entrepreneur Rapelang Rabana shows how homegrown leadership and technology designed for African classrooms can deliver foundational skills to millions of children — and shape a new future of education across the continent. (This ambitious idea is part of The Audacious Project, TED’s initiative to inspire and fund global change.) (Recorded at TED2026 on April 14, 2026)

Hip-hop gets blamed for being a bad influence — but the data shows a different story #TEDTalks

Hip-hop often gets blamed for its controversial lyrics. What if there was a way to actually measure its impact on people’s lives?
