I think the walking toward your biases, and the idea of all acknowledging our biases, is a good idea, especially when you look at institutional change. There is a huge bias in law firms toward defending ourselves from the idea we have any biases - and it's probably part of why we are sooooo slow to change. Dead on there.

I'm sure this TED talk is solid, as the subject matter is still very unsettled and a source of huge controversy.
But most TED talks are just a bunch of obvious points repacked to appear novel. "We can cure hunger in Africa with big data and moral resolve!" "Social media isn't evil... But it's not necessarily good, either!" "Mapping the genome is just the beginning!" "I was born without arms. But I can still talk, and speak my truth!"
