"Race: Human". The Un-Science of Race Categories | Teja Arboleda | TEDxClarkUniversity

In a world divided by race, do we as people really understand what this construct, “Race” really means? This talk breaks down the racial categories and gets us wondering, can we move past these categories?

Teja’s father is African-American, Native-American, Filipino-Chinese, and his mother is German Danish. He grew up in Japan, and has two adopted daughters who are ethnically Chinese. His multiracial and multiethnic identity has provided the platform for him to speak at over 1,000 colleges, universities and corporations in 48 states. Teja has his Bachelor's degree in Sociology and Filmmaking from Clark University and serves as the Creative Director for Entertaining Diversity, Inc. He is the recipient of an EMMY award for Reflections with James Earl Jones. With Clark University as is his alma mater, and current workplace, he wants the Clark community to embrace the power of self-identification and move forward by setting the stage for the next generation to build a real, equitable, empathetic society.

This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at http://ted.com/tedx
