Back in September I gave you my review of Ingrid Newkirk’s new book, One Can Make a Difference, and how I thought the stories within the book can 1) help motivate readers to start taking action to make their own differences, and 2) help boost feelings of self-confidence, self-worth, and positivity.
I didn’t realize it at the time, but the day after I posted my review, PETA posted a video on their YouTube channel of Newkirk discussing One Can Make a Difference.
During the relatively quick video (it’s less than two minutes long, so, your lunch hour remains intact), Newkirk talks about how “everyone is very important” and “the world is waiting to hear from each and every one of them,” about how artists, poets, and comedians can help “change people’s moods and minds,” and about how the one that can make a difference “could be you.”
You can view the video below. I must warn you there are a couple of very quick, slightly graphic scenes, but aside from those the video is full of inspiration of the non-disturbing variety.
