The Spirit & the Flesh

Imagine If...YOU Create Your Value
TEDxBerkeley - 11/28/2021

Subject

In Spirit & Flesh, Angelica Ross urges Black trans people: "cultivate your spirit as well as the flesh. Take the time to discover your talents and your gifts and your passions and your purpose."

Description

In her Ted talk called, Imagine if...You Create Your Value, Anglica Ross explains how she achieved success when she became a Buddhist. That decision enabled Miss Ross to recover from a suicide attempt her mother had requested because her religion devalued her daughter in her eyes. Miss Ross' inspiring message demonstrates the methods she used and exemplifies the determination she would develop to create her own value. She encourages other black trans people to do the same.
