TEDxHarare - Miles Tendi - Zimbabwe's Men of Ideas

Miles Tendi (D.Phil) is a Zimbabwean Lecturer in African politics at the University of Oxford. He is the author of "Making History in Mugabe's Zimbabwe: Politics, Intellectuals and the Media". Tendi's research is principally focused on intellectuals, society and power; military history; and biographical studies. He has subsidiary interests in genocide studies; counterfactuals in historical explanation; and power-sharing in Africa. Tendi is also a regular contributor to the Guardian newspaper (UK).

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)
