About the event
American Corner Cape town and the U.S. Consulate General Cape Town invite you to a Screening And Discussion on Democracy and Civic Engagement be welcome to celebrate with us your rights as a citizen in the global community. TED Talk: Why Ordinary People Need to Understand Power. Details about the talk: Far too many Americans are illiterate in power — what it is, how it operates, and why some people have it. As a result, those few who do understand power wield disproportionate influence over everyone else. "We need to make civics sexy again," says civics educator Eric Liu. "As sexy as it was during the American Revolution or the Civil Rights Movement."
