TED's mission is to promote "ideas worth sharing". It would stand in stark contrast to that for them to prevent others from sharing ideas.



TED Talks have been viewed by over 2 billion people. They state that their agenda is to make great ideas accessible and spark conversation.



This Summer, philosopher and sociologist Clay JW Crowne will be giving his long-awaited presentation of bold and vital new ideas, in the form of a series of TED* Talks. (*Not affiliated with TED.com, its members, fellows, organisers, partners, subsidiaries, sponsors or stockholders.)



We are calling on TED not to prevent Crowne's talk from going ahead, but to celebrate the power of the global phenomenon they have inspired.



Join us in telling TED that free speech and shared knowledge is a right, not a privilege.
