On this earth “…we are completely interdependent & part of the creation of this Country had to do with recognizing that; it is our collective duty to watch out for each other”

I live in Washington state and would love a program like this where I live. Great idea and gives real people a voice.

I think this might be the closest most of us can get to the feeling astronauts get from seeing this grand blue marble from space. Aren't humans in the multitude of all their individual lives and concerns fantastic?

Everyone wants to be heard but so many voices are silenced and drowned out by louder more popular ones. How often do we ask what someone else thinks instead of going on about ourselves first?

I love NPR, Traverse City Mi. IPR News Radio.

The Roxy in Missoula screened this alongside a 35mm print of Lynch's The Straight Story. Saw it with my mom and fiancee, one of the most special screenings of my life and one of the most special shorts of my life. Marshall and co. did a wonderful job.

Loved every minute of this. Great video.

People have fewer places to share thoughtfully. Friends and family shrink away from some topics and it’s good to see this space where people can share whatever they are inspired to. Thank you!
@
love the poetry guy in between all the other stuff lol
@
This is remarkable
@
I wish this was still a thing, and I wish it was broadcast nationally on NPR.

I liked hearing people speaking their minds thoughtfully, without screaming or dogmatism.

Utterly fascinating like real life usually is.
