Pennies and Phobias | Macarena Aviles Tamariz | TEDxYouth@AASSofia

Macarena talks about a less popular phobia - Aporophobia - fear of poverty and poor people. She argues that we should not let prejudice lead us when we meet someone with limited resources, but we should rather give them a chance and try to understand where they are coming from. “Pennies and Phobias" ~ Macarena Aviles was born and raised in Bogota, Colombia like her brother. Both of her parents were born in Quito, Ecuador and she moved to Bulgaria in the summer of 2017. She speaks Spanish, English and is currently learning French. She enjoys playing sports, baking, traveling, meeting new people and animals. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.
