Reagan Adenyi, a learner in the Justice Studies program at Bow Valley College, offers his talk, “African Roots of Gender Equality”, as a reminder of the resilience, of innovation, and of creativity that exists within Kintsugi. We are reminded that there is always opportunity for beautification in what we consider to be broken. Reagan’s talk will reinforce an important ideal which is, when we engage in a concept, its ability to be further elevated after lessons learned, can be something far more sophisticated than we could first imagine. Reagan Adenyi is a learner in the Justice Studies program, in the School of Community Studies. He is currently president of the Justice 4 All Club at Bow Valley College, as well as a member of the Bow Valley College Toastmasters Club, and a Councillor with the Students Association of Bow Valley College. He has worked as a community leader, starting and successfully running Africa's Promise Youth Leadership Club, a not-for-profit organization. For Reagan, the stories of Africa and African cultures have shaped his self-image and character. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
