Everyone is Awesome in their Own Way | Damon Robison | TEDxBrown County Schools
Damon dreams of becoming a doctor someday so he can help others and make a difference in the world. And when he speaks about “awesomeness,” he means every word. His message? To inspire everyone to recognize their own worth and to never forget: “You can do anything!”
Damon Robison is a shining example of leadership, kindness, and determination. The proud son of Steve and Natalie Robison, Damon is currently a fifth grader at Helmsburg Elementary School. Throughout his school journey, he has shown a passion for learning and growing—not just in the classroom, but far beyond it.
An active participant in clubs like Math Bowl, Spell Bowl, Science Bowl, and BOTS Club, Damon is also a school ambassador, representing Helmsburg with pride and positivity. Whether he's running on the track, playing basketball, or leading his cross-country team, Damon shows us what it means to be committed and full of energy. Damon Robison is more than a student—he’s a role model, a motivator, and a reminder of just how awesome the next generation can be.

- 13:54Curare per interrompere i sistemi di oppressione | Andi Ngaso | TEDxPisogneNato in un sistema di oppressione, figlio di una frattura e di una migrazione continua. Andi Nganso, speaker di TEDxPisogne, porta sul palco una voce che attraversa sofferenze. Sbarcato in Italia nel 2006, si è trovato in un sistema dove la cittadinanza è un privilegio. E allora viene da chiedersi: come si fa a parlare di eredità, se la tua identità non viene riconosciuta? La sua risposta è rivoluzionaria: scegliere la cura. Curare significa interrompere il sistema e rendere la cura collettiva uno strumento di resistenza. Andi Nganso è un medico, imprenditore e narratore di mondi. È nato in Camerun, è cresciuto tra migrazioni e sogni, e oggi vive in Italia, dove cura corpi, idee e comunità. Da anni si muove tra ospedali, frontiere e festival culturali, cercando di restituire dignità a ciò che spesso viene ignorato: le storie. È Medico di urgenza emergenza e esperto di salute globale. È volontario della Croce Rossa Italiana, con cui lavora in contesti di emergenza sanitaria e cooperazione internazionale. Ma è anche il fondatore del Festival DiverCity, una piattaforma che intreccia arte, design, decolonizzazione e giustizia sociale.
