00:12

I'm a professional troublemaker.

00:14

(Laughter)

00:16

As my job is to critique the world,

00:22

the shoddy systems and the people who refuse to do better,

00:25

as a writer, as a speaker, as a shady Nigerian --

00:29

(Laughter)

00:30

I feel like my purpose is to be this cat.

00:34

(Laughter)

00:36

I am the person who is looking at other people,

00:39

like, "I need you to fix it."

00:41

That is me.

00:42

I want us to leave this world better than we found it.

00:47

And how I choose to effect change

00:50

is by speaking up,

00:51

by being the first and by being the domino.

00:55

For a line of dominoes to fall,

00:57

one has to fall first,

00:59

which then leaves the other choiceless to do the same.

01:03

And that domino that falls,

01:04

we're hoping that, OK,

01:07

the next person that sees this is inspired to be a domino.

01:12

Being the domino, for me, looks like speaking up

01:15

and doing the things that are really difficult,

01:17

especially when they are needed,

01:19

with the hope that others will follow suit.

01:23

And here's the thing: I'm the person who says

01:25

what you might be thinking but dared not to say.

01:29

A lot of times people think that we're fearless,

01:31

the people who do this, we're fearless.

01:33

We're not fearless.

01:35

We're not unafraid of the consequences

01:37

or the sacrifices that we have to make

01:39

by speaking truth to power.

01:41

What happens is, we feel like we have to,

01:44

because there are too few people in the world

01:46

willing to be the domino,

01:48

too few people willing to take that fall.

01:50

We're not doing it without fear.

01:52

Now, let's talk about fear.

01:54

I knew exactly what I wanted to be when I grew up.

01:56

I was like, "I'm going to be a doctor!"

01:58

Doctor Luvvie was the dream.

02:00

I was Doc McStuffins before it was a thing.

02:03

(Laughter)

02:04

And I remember when I went to college,

02:06

my freshman year, I had to take Chemistry 101

02:10

for my premed major.

02:13

I got the first and last D of my academic career.
