Banned TED Talk about Psychic Abilities, by Russell Targ

May 11, 2017 by Suzanne Taylor 4 Comments Leave a Comment

This is a talk I produced. As of today, it has 881,025 views, 12,198 likes, and 10,641 shares !!!!! Without having seen this talk or talks by Larry Dossey, MD and Marianne Williamson, TED decided that my fully sponsored TEDx West Hollywood program was unacceptable and cancelled my license. They said: “If your program is allowed to proceed, it will truly damage other TEDx organizers’ ability to recruit scientists and other speakers.” I had two weeks to regroup and I paid for putting on the program myself. Do you think these talks are unacceptable or do you think they belong on TED’s stage?

    Superb talk, a bit long at 60Mb but remarkably good and quite mind-blowing material.

Crop Circles could shift our worldview and got me to be a filmmaker. What on Earth? got a good review in The New York Times.
Before I made What on Earth?, I was the Executive Producer of CROP CIRCLES: Quest for Truth. It streams free here.
