Queen Sheba Ignites Global Movement with New TEDx Talk: "Reclaim They — The Pronoun of Genius"Queen Sheba, captivates audiences in her new TEDx Talk, "Reclaim They: The Pronoun of Genius," urging viewers to stop waiting on "them" and embrace their own power, reframing "they" not as a matter of gender but as a bold declaration of human potential.
In this dynamic talk, Queen Sheba reframes "they" not as a matter of gender identity, but as a real declaration of the human potential. "There is no 'they'", she emphasizes, cautioning them: There has always been the they, urging viewers to recognize that they are the legends of their own fate, that genius doesn't show up in perfect form, that it ignites in just about every space, from tiny apartments to laundry rooms, junk drawers, and the backs of cars. She draws from her own journey, from surviving sexual assault, neurodivergence, traumatic brain injury, and the will to survive and reclaim her memory. Her message is humorous, raw, and deeply motivating. "Genius doesn't need permission; it just needs a spark." Her talk is a call to, amongst other things, slow down, forgive yourself, and make space for clarity and joy; Act on the spark before perfection arrives, to stop waiting on a mysterious "they" to *x things, and recognize you are in control of your own fate.
