My inclusive journey | Linda Serra | TEDxSan Giovanni in Persiceto
E se il viaggio più importante non fosse il giro del mondo, ma quello che ci cambia dentro?In questo talk intimo e potente, l’autrice ci accompagna in tre tappe della sua vita che hanno risvegliato in lei un senso profondo di giustizia, rispetto e consapevolezza. Da una colazione a Rimini, passando per una spiaggia calabrese, fino ai dancefloor più liberi di Bologna, emerge con forza un messaggio chiaro: l’inclusione non è una destinazione, è una scelta quotidiana. Uno stato mentale.
Con uno stile autentico e ironico, questo racconto è un invito a riflettere su come i piccoli episodi possano trasformarci in alleatə, in persone più attente e più umane.
“Diversity è essere invitatə alla festa. Inclusion è essere invitatə a ballare.”
Se anche tu vuoi cambiare punto di vista, questo video ti lascerà qualcosa addosso.
