What are some major world events that have really gotten to you? Did the depth of your own reaction ever surprise you?
I started crying when I heard that Rouhani said the Holocaust happened. I wasn’t expecting to feel so happy about it because I hadn’t realized I’d allowed myself to become so personally affected by pervasive anti-Semitism.
My whole subway car cheered when Obama got elected. (We had just come aboveground and one guy tuned into the news on his phone on speaker.)
When the BP well blew out my friends had to tell me to stop yelling at them about it.
Bonus question, for those who lived through it – how did it impact you when JFK was shot?
