Happy TED Tuesday!
This is an inspiring story of a teenage girl who worked for the Invisible Children movement to get the campaign featured on the Oprah Winfrey show as well as a bill signed into law that would apprehend the Lord's Resistance Army leaders in Uganda and provide funding to help the region devastated by 25 years of war recover.
My favorite thing Natalie says is, "Anonymous Extraordinaries are people who work selflessly and vigorously for what they believe in. People who are motivated by conviction, and not recognition." The idea that the acts we so make us extraordinary, not the moments when we receive recognition, is something I think it would be beneficial for every individual to take to heart.
