THE TIG ARCHIVES│INFLUENCERS│BE THE CHANGE

“A few years ago, my friend, Genevieve, sent me a card: “Be the change you wish to see in the world.” A Gandhi quote. A simple “hey friend” correspondence via my beloved snail mail – pen to paper, stamped, sealed, and sent with love. But those ten words – that beautiful quote – was more than a friendly check-in; it was a call to action. Be the change.

When I was asked to be a counselor at One Young World last month in Dublin, my response was a resounding “yes.” OYW invites young adults from all over the world who are actively working to transform the socio-political landscape by being the greater good. They are delegates who are speaking out against human rights violations, environmental crises, gender equality issues, discrimination & injustice. They are the change. And One Young World gives them the opportunity to participate in panels with world leaders & influencers including: former UN Secretary General Kofi Annan, Nobel Laureate Professor Muhammad Yunus, CEOs of Barclays, Unilever & Wikipedia, Mark Pollock, Boris Becker, Dame Ellen MacArthur, James Chau, Bob Geldof, and several others that would make your jaw drop. And by some fortune, I was asked to be there as well.

I was assigned to one specific delegate, Luwam Estifanos, a young woman from the country of Eritrea, described as the North Korea of Africa – where she was a slave from the age of 16 until she ran to her freedom across the border just a few years ago; she now lives in Norway, where she works with a grassroots organization to end slavery in Eritrea, to free her friends who remain enslaved, and to bring attention on a global level to the injustice happening in her homeland.

Truth be told, most people have never heard of Eritrea, much less of its status as an open prison. Most people turn on the morning news and only see coverage of celebrity weddings and weather forecasts, of videos that have gone viral, and the best time to buy your holiday flights. Much of that is why I felt equal parts inspired and humbled to be seated next to the bravest person I have ever known. I encourage you to listen to Luwam’s speech, to find something within yourself that is a call to action, and to be the change you wish to see in the world.” - Meghan Markle, November 2014

THE TIG ARCHIVES│INFLUENCERS│JAMES CHAU

“Sometimes you meet a person and just click. You fall into an easy banter, find them equal parts inspiring and entertaining, and you feel absolutely tickled to have made a new friend. (Something that gets harder as you get older – if you were born after 1985, trust me on this). Such was the case when I met James Chau at One Young World last fall in Dublin. Little did I know that this savvy and charming gent is a broadcaster and writer who has interviewed world figures to the likes of Winnie Mandela and Robert Mugabe; that he’s an award winning journalist and news anchor who captured an audience of 85 million (yes, 85 million) for over a decade at the helm of China Central Television’s CCTV. Many moons ago, my friend Misan told me that James and I would connect someday, and the moment we did it all made sense. James is a UNAIDS Goodwill Ambassador, a graduate of Cambridge, and a lover of culture and arts. You know how I often rattle on about “being the change you wish to see in the world.” Well, he’s the guy that’s doing just that. Authentically, and passionately. What an immense pleasure to share my friend, James Chau, with you today.” - Meghan Markle, January 2015
