The last speech from the Great Dictator
Probably not more than two of my readers will watch this video, but for those two: did you have goosebumps by the end? This 1940 film, The Great Dictator, was the first film in which Charlie Chaplin spoke. He plays two roles in this comedy/drama, the Dictator Hynkel and the Jewish baker who looks just like him.

'The more things change the more they remain the same' - The words spoken in this clip are as true today as they were 71 years ago - thanks for sharing this Michaelann - another reminder of so much work today. So many of us refuse to give up the struggle for peace and humanity.
More than goosebumps, I'm all teared up.
MoonRaven referred you for a Liebster award. I'm so glad he did.
If only one leader emerged today with so much passion and truth...
Make that three of your readers :)
I watch this whenever I feel things are just a little too much to bear and I think I'm losing the plot. It reminds me that not only am I sane - but that I do what I do for all the right reasons.
Good to see it yet again :)
