We're so used to narratives out of Africa being about war, poverty and devastation, says TED Fellow Wanuri Kahiu. Where's the fun? Introducing "AfroBubbleGum" -- African art that's vibrant, lighthearted and without a political agenda. Rethink the value of all that is unserious as Kahiu explains why we need art that captures the full range of human experiences to tell the stories of Africa.
The human ability to dream of and create new worlds is what makes our imagination both fascinating and unique. Learn how to cultivate and use your imagination to open up your thinking, embrace what seems impossible and have some serious fun with Wanuri Kahiu and Charlie Jane Anders.
