Your top TED Talk recommendation is...When Esta Soler lobbied for a bill outlawing domestic violence in 1984, one politician called it the "Take the Fun Out of Marriage Act." "If only I had Twitter then," she mused. In this sweeping, optimistic talk, Soler charts 30 years of tactics and technologies -- from the Polaroid camera to social media -- that led to a 64% drop in domestic violence in the U.S.
Bravo to Esta for giving us more food for thought as we try to solve the violence problem around the world. The history of the movement is important for us all to know. This talk will help more people understand the journey, and hopefully will inspire more to join her in it.
