TEDxTT 2012: “Dying for Land,” Sam Eifling.
Sam Eifling (@sameifling), a recent graduate of the UBC School of Journalism, takes us on a Brazilian journey that examines the tensions which exist between the government, the land owners, and the indigenous peoples. In doing so, he also presents a strong case for the crucial role that investigative journalism plays in shedding much needed depth and perspective, especially in a media world where information is often too fast and too shallow.

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
