TEDtalk?
OP - December 25, 2012, 02:53 AM

Is there an Ex-Muslim related TEDtalk video? If not, do you think it might be something to go for? That would definitely add to awareness of ex-muslims out in society.

Well they let a muslim apologist do a TED talk here.

Closest thing to an ex muslim TED talk is this one. But then again maajid nawaz is an extremely liberal muslim but not an ex muslim

I have a feeling the organization that runs these talks might be hesitant to to an ex muslim TED talk for fear of being accused of Islamophobia.

But I think someone should seriously attempt one by writing to the organization to see if they are interested.

I think that the people behind the CEMB youtube vids would be the perfect presenters for the job.

In my opinion a life without curiosity is not a life worth living

Good point, Stardust.

Methinks Alom Shaha would do a good job of it.
