Gary brings a lot of things to light in this speech. His passion is empowering and his words and images enlightening. I watch this whenever I feel like I need to be reminded of why I need to work my hardest and continue trying my best to open people's eyes to the violent industry around them. He uses both humor and brutal honesty to get his point across. The speech has been translated into several different languages so it is available to a lot of people. Please take the time to watch it. It is an hour long so maybe if you don't have the morning watch this on the weekend or instead of your nightly TV episodes, but do watch it- for everything.
I know a lot of people have issues with Gary Yourofsky (the rape comment) but this speech was amazing. I don't think anyone could deny that. I don't think anyone could come back with such witty responses to those kids the way he did.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you liked it! He definitely knows what he's doing in terms of speaking and it's so great to have his experience available to teach the public.
DeleteThis is most definitely an inspiring speech. I had heard word of it but had never watched it until this clip.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you think so!
