This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.
Ono speaks to her audience of how the women who suffered from the 311 disaster. Those whom pulled together from their horrid situation and created an opportunity for themselves, by beginning a knitting community. She described great stories of regular but amazing women who inspired to make more of themselves, despite all the stereotypes placed upon them, and encouraged them to pass on their stories to young girls who are just looking for a role model.
