May 1, 1969: Fred Rogers testifies before the Senate Subcommittee on Communications

This is one of the clips I play for my students every year when we start our outlines for our persuasive essays. Being in education Fred Rogers is one of my heroes… Although I could never be as calm or patient as he is :rofl: … But the video is touching and it gives people the feels… I talk to my students about the power of words, Pathos, Ethos, and Logos, and what makes his unique way of communicating effective.

If you don’t choke up watching this get yourself checked by a doctor.
The documentary they made on him was great, haven’t watched the Tom Hanks movie.
