The Jimmy Carter TED Talk (Rated Grown-Up)

I cannot caution you strongly enough that while there is certainly no foul language used, this talk by former President Jimmy Carter may discuss very troubling things going on, in I think a very objective and bipartisan manner.

This is very difficult material to hear even for someone who was aware of some of it via “reading the news from lots of places and listening to a lot of people a lot”. I agree with him in that I do see a way forward that does not have to involve conflict between groups. In fact, I think this may be the one thing that a majority of US peoples and some other Nations’ peoples can agree to discuss above many other beliefs.

There is no link. You should be able to find it easily if you are in the US or many other places, but it would be better if you chose to do so via earnest decision.

Some people have a mental palace. I have a mental millenium falcon, except it's symetrical along the long axis, as the ship would travel in flight as seen from the top. Thanks, first replyer, for suggesting that I make that clearer. "That always bugged me" would have been the sentence after that but now it looks wrong, coming right after mentioning the first replyer, who I actually do appreciate, as I see what they mean now. Sorry, I used to read Faulkner and other SOC writers. It's a lost art except for some Twitters.
