Ok. I love Ken Burns and it’s a very important message, but come on! Who needs to hear it?
Versus who can understand it??
“130 million Americans read below sixth-grade level
In the U.S., nearly 130 million American adults read below a sixth-grade level — that number represents more than half the adult US population, according to the Department of Education.“
Do educated folks assume everyone else in the world are equally well educated? Can we not understand how tffg has become the Pied Piper??
I hear you for sure. There’s a very specific segment of the population who this might resonate with. Just like there’s a very specific segment of the population that will respond to other flavors of messages.

For me, I sent this out on social and to some friends from my college days who I fear will stay home in November. You never know what message will resonate.

Thank you! Agreed! Every vote matters. ♥️
“An existential crossroads!” Ken Burns says it like it is.
We must continue to work together to save our Democracy.
Entropy” is gradual decline into disorder. For many, it will be worse than that. It already is thanks to his three Supreme Court appointments.
Thankfully there are people who are visible and influential who speak out! They are needed!
What a masterpiece of a commencement speech! 👏🏼❤️
I watched it yesterday and shared on all my social media platforms and encouraged all to share it widely.
