You Are the Best at Being You | Gau Ayaj | TEDxYouth@Lincoln

Gau Ayaj speaks about the importance of breaking down stereotypes and following your own path. Although implicit bias is everywhere, he talks about how not trying to fit in has helped him overcome some of those biases. He stresses the importance of just being yourself. Gau is a freshman attending the University of Nebraska Lincoln. Originally from Sudan, he and his family fled to Egypt before making their way to the United States. As a former Engineering Pathway student at The Career Academy in Lincoln, and now at the University, he finds that many people write him off because he doesn’t fit their idea of what an engineer looks or sounds like. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
