1984.
Forty years. The more things change, I guess.
Obviously, it's a product of it's time. Yes, it's all white dudes singing the leads.
Yes, it's opportunistic and fairly condescending.
Yes, it accomplished almost nothing.
But, it certainly marked a time when thinking globally about issues was really coming to the forefront of peoples attitudes towards the news. And, also, how people were beginning to think about how their lifestyle affected others on this planet, and lastly, how a global network of sound and vision was just starting to become a major player in how information was processed. And disseminated.
And, at the end of the day, at least they tried to affect change. What have you done today?
Yoda can pound sand, trying matters. And, here, at least someone started to try to help.
Anyway. Merry Christmas, everyone.
CSOTD will be taking an end of year hiatus, and we should be back on Thursday, January 2nd.
Be safe, be well, take care, and have a great holiday season, everyone!
