Neal Katyal proved the most powerful American wrong. He successfully defended Osama Bin Laden's driver at the US Supreme Court after the US President issued a military trial order for suspected terrorists. Neal's motivations make a fascinating story. Running against the American system doesn't make him bitter, it actually affirms his faith in institutionalizing dissent from within.
About TEDx, x = independently organized event. 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, TED Talks 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.*
