Nobel laureate Paul Nurse describes evolution by natural selection as "the most beautiful idea in biology." He unpacks Charles Darwin's theory, explaining how complexity emerges without a designer and the profound impact of tiny variations on our understanding of life.

Nurse explores the deep genetic connections linking all organisms, from humans to yeast, prompting a crucial question: if all life is related, what do we owe to the living world? A distinguished biochemist, Nurse was awarded the 2001 Nobel Prize for his discoveries in cell cycle regulation.

Multidisciplinary artist and TED Fellow Paul Rucker is unstitching the legacy of systemic racism in the United States. A collector of artifacts connected to the history of slavery -- from branding irons and shackles to postcards depicting lynchings -- Rucker couldn't find an undamaged Ku Klux Klan robe for his collection, so he began making his own. The result: striking garments in non-traditional fabrics like kente cloth, camouflage and silk that confront the normalization of systemic racism in the US. "If we as a people collectively look at these objects and realize that they are part of our history, we can find a way to where they have no more power over us," Rucker says. (This talk contains graphic images.)

Paul's award-winning work, including his monograph "Broken Land," visually underscores the human cost of these mindsets, with his photographs featured in The New York Times, The Guardian, and other international publications. This impactful discussion was presented at a TEDx event. Learn more at ted.com/tedx.
