    My Daughter, Grandson and I were in the audience of TKAM back in Aug. 2019. One of the best nights of my life. Everyone in it was Great ! I also got to see Jeff many years ago with my late husband at our local theater. We loved his singing and humor. I have an autographed CD. LOVE---Blue Valiant !! We live about 1/2 hr from Jeff, so we have always been very interested in him. Such a talented man...... We also got to see a Stephen Colbert taping !!! What great memories !!!

    I never really paid attention to Jeff Daniels until I saw that newsroom speech. Then I went back and watched a movie I never watched before dumb and dumber and started paying attention to Jeff. Now I can’t get enough of listening to how smart and what a good guy he is. When I first heard he was opening to kill a mockingbird again I didn’t know why, now I do, trying to help all those workers who are out of work because of that pandemic. We need more people like him for sure.

      It's actually really interesting (to me at least), Sorkin, the writer of the show, hated how that scene was received. He didn't mean it as a "wake up America, and look how bad it is" he was writing from the position of a guy having a breakdown (Daniel's character). I'm glad it worked as both, but its interesting to me how Sorkin eventually did not like the scene. I know it's what sold me on the show.

      Better in what way?
      I think personally this is the beginning of the end. You can go on about social victories, eliminating racism, propping up the poor into a better quality of life etc., but there's a storm coming that ain't looking good for humanity as a whole.
      We are on the verge of a complete breakdown in climate, we are beginning to separate from global political unions while places like Russia and China plant seeds of doubt and influence the morons of our cultures to sabotage us from the inside out.
      Every voice is countered with a louder more idiotic one with no rational thought, our kids can't read an analog clock or do anything without asking google ahead of time, our food security is crumbing under the weight of a population explosion that started 70 years ago along with weather that destroys entire crops. Commercial fishing is less than 2 decades from a complete collapse because there's no biomass left from decades of exploitation. We're about to fight wars over water and food, it's no longer fuel that's the issue.
      We rely on billionaires that have exploited millions of people, the environment and our way of thinking to be our social crusaders and vessels of change. Do you really think it's a good idea to let rich people lead our communities and countries the way they see fit? Why wouldn't our governments be doing this for the people by the people? I personally think it's too much power to let Gates or Musk and the likes to be making these decisions for us.
      We are in a mess and winning racism debates and feeding the poor soup is not the real issue here, so I think it's going to keep getting worse exponentially from my point of view.

I also believe you may be insinuating that my comment inferred that poor whites are racist, which I didn't and don't believe - unless each as individuals proves otherwise. What do you mean by "systematic racism working against us like it does?" Thank you.
