- Alice Walker is world renown for her fiction, poetry, essays, and human rights activism. Her fiction, in particular her novels, have established her as a canonical figure in American letters, as well as a major figure in what scholars term the renaissance in African American women's writings of the 1970s. Her writings have been translated into more than two dozen languages, and her books have sold more than fifteen million copies. In 1982 Alice published The Color Purple, now a classic of American literature, for which she was awarded the 1983 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction (the first African American woman writer to receive this award) and the National Book Award. The award-winning novel served as the inspiration for Steven Spielberg's 1985 film and has been adapted for the stage by Marsha Norman and produced by Scott Sanders.
عرفت أليس والكر حول العالم من خلال أعمالها التي تضم قصصاً خيالية وقصائد ومقالات هذا بالإضافة إلى كونها ناشطة في مجال حقوق الإنسان. وقد كرستها رواياتها مرجعاً معترفاً به في ما يخص الرسائل الأميركية ورمزاً كبيراً ساهم بحسب الأدباء بنهضة كتابات النساء الأميركيات من أصول إفريقية في فترة السبعينيات من القرن الماضي. ترجمت مؤلفاتها إلى أكثر من 12 لغة كما فاقت مبيعات كتبها ال15 مليون نسخة. نشرت والكر عام 1982 كتابها "اللون البنفسجي" The Color Purple الذي أضحى نموذجاً للأدب الكلاسيكي الأميركي فحصدت عنه جائزة الPulitzer للرواية لعام 1983 (وأصبحت بذلك أول إمرأة أميركية من أصول إفريقية تمنح هذه الجائزة) كما نالت جائزة الNational Book Award. وقد ألهمت هذه القصة الحائزة على منح المخرج الأمريكي ستيفن سبيلبرغ فحولها فيلماً مصوراً كما تمت إعادة صياغتها لتلائم المسرح من قبل مارشا نورمان والمنتج سكوت ساندرز.

About TEDx,
x = independently organized event
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized. (Subject to certain rules and regulations.)
عن تيد أكس
أكس= حدث مستقل منظم ذاتياً
يشكل تيد أكس رام الله عبارة عن برنامج محلي، ينظمه أفراد يؤمنون بأن الأفكار تستحق الإنتشار لأنها تساهم في جمع الناس فيتشاركون تجربة من وحي تجارب تيد. تبث المؤتمرات المنظمة من قبل تيد أكس خطابات تيد على أشرطة الفيديو كما وتعتمد على الخطابات الحية التي يلقيها المتحدثون فتنشط النقاشات العميقة وتشتد الروابط الإنسانية والفكرية في المجموعة الواحدة. وقد صمم البرنامج تحديداً لتحفيز الأفراد كما المنظمات والمجتمعات على تنشيط الحوار. يزود مؤتمر تيد برنامج تيد أكس بالتوجيهات العامة، إلا أن تنظيم مناسبات تيد أكس الفردية يتم بشكل ذاتي.* لذلك تعرف هذه النشاطات المحلية والمنظمة ذاتياً بتيد أكس حيث تصبح أكس عبارة عن حدث مستقل منظم ذاتياً.

She really said "Who said I was going to Israel? I'm in Palestine"
Iconic
i guess I am pretty randomly asking but does anyone know of a good site to watch new movies online ?
@Tomas Leland lately I have been using FlixZone. Just google for it :)
A beautiful soul who honestly describes the reality of apartheid
Great Alice you are the prophet of humanization,
I am proud of her... How courageous she is to tell those people that they have the corrupted system!
I am so blessed to have heard The Goddess Of Literature in New Mexico right after 9/11.Despite my horrific despair I knew this would be a defining moment. Thankful for TEDXand all the knowledge it brings to all. Peace , Purpose and Prosperity.RFP.
i love her courage to state the truth. the system is nuts! yep!
Beloved of GOD...Mothers Heart. Thank u LORD fer manifesting yer love thru yer Daughter Alice, may your blessings be with her and all her loved ones. Amen
Soul beauty a true woman...
Thank you Alice
She is amazing!
I can't believe that Alice walker was actually in Ramallah
You're a moron though - So we understand your disbelief.
Alice the Great! I absolutely love her.
Love you Miss Walker.
I love her exchange with the Israeli soldier
She's great.
Great talk!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤love her
Its incredible to read the vitriolic hate posted here..instead of taking any wisdom that ANY person can offer..you just look for ways to discredit her to justify ignoring the burden to be better people and act more humanely. I listened to this and was struck by the fact children are no longer viewed and treated the way they should be..as a parent this struck me on a personal and global level...you don't have to agree with everything a person says to take some wisdom away from what they say.
The message can only be heard if ur ready and open. Most of the hate comes from ppl who are neither. They clouded by hatred and a lack of self worth.
tutu beast so true
❤❤❤
Wonderful.
@beitzim obviously the "risk" comes from the other side of the country, especially from those patrolling the Mediterranean.
@Leni8787
is that all you took from this talk? and she told the guard she didnt expect to him have heard of any of her work. the guard insisted that she 'try him', why are you so quick to hate? she wants peace for both israelis and palestinians and you attack her. i feel this is more a reflection of your convictions, not hers.
iam doing a presatition on alice walker
@beitzim The settler colonialist endeavors in the west bank are the reason the occupying forces are there.
Am i in Israel? 🤣🤣
South Africa is a country that is falling apart. Capetown has literally no water. I am not sure that's the best example of a successful country.

SA is a successful one state solution - we have shown the world that apartheid doesn't work and can be defeated.
