TED Talks on Spoken Word Poetry

It’s no surprise that Ted Talks — a series of videos created to present interesting ideas in 18 minutes or less — is a great place to learn about spoken word. After all, this platform covered every topics from “Do schools kill creativity?” to “The Power of Vulnerability.” The complete list of viewable Ted Talks is 162 pages long and dates to June of 2006 — though Ted began in 1985 as a conference on Technology, Entertainment, and Design (hence the name).
