Guest speaker: Lorenzo

PROGRAM NOTES:

Date this lecture was recorded: January 30, 2017In today's podcast Lorenzo explains how he came to his decision to not vote in last year's presidential election. He begins by quoting part of a poem by William Butler Yeats which read:Things fall apart; the center cannot hold;Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhereThe ceremony of innocence is drowned;The best lack all conviction, while the worstAre full of passionate intensity.And by changing a single word in the final two lines of that poem, it would conclude:And what rough beast, its hour come round at last,Slouches towards Washington to be born?
