Neil deGrasse Tyson: “Whatever [the next outbreak] is, we ain’t ready for it. We still have anti-vaxxers running around.”
“I don’t trust scientists. I saw a YouTube video, so I’m not going to take it.” (mocking)
“I don’t want you to ever forget this story.”
“20,000 years ago, we’re in the cave. Do you know what the life expectancy was?”
Shannon Sharpe: “10 years? 15 years?”
Neil deGrasse Tyson: “30. Half of everyone born was dead before they were 30.”
Shannon Sharpe: “Wow!!!”
Neil deGrasse Tyson: “Fast forward to 1840… everyone born in the world was dead by the age of 35. We gained five years of life expectancy. And every one of them ate organic, breathed clean air… Science matters here.”
“We’ve doubled the life expectancy with antibiotics, vaccines, and sanitation. The three biggest forces operating on our longevity. So to come around and say I don’t need vaccines because I’m not getting sick, that’s like saying, why are you using dandruff shampoo? You don’t have dandruff.”
Shannon Sharpe: “Well, I don’t want to get it.”
Neil deGrasse Tyson: “That’s my point. If you’re successful, people think you don’t need it when that’s what’s creating the ongoing success in the first place.”

Tupac was 25 when he died listen to what he was talking about. Nas was 16 when he made illmatic. Listen to how deep it was. Biggie was 24. Fast forward, all these rappers talk about today is pooping pills, shooting, killing, strippers & sex. Of course yall can’t connect.
They mad in the comments, when it’s literally true. If you have to wear other people’s culture as a costume to engage in that artform, you are a guest.
@AkademiksTV I hate that they're trying to paint this picture that its only the N word. Go to LA and antagonize asians/Latinos with slurs. Go to white people and tell em fuck the Vets. People have emotional reaction to words that's human nature. Why only blacks need to be made an example of?
I just want to point out....
The amount of money the United States has spent on war in the last 67 days, is roughly the same cost that Bernie Sanders proposed for universal college. So the real question is never can we afford it, it's what we choose to prioritize.
This speech will go down as one of the best written and spoken by Jeff Daniel. These words are as important and as relevant today as when he said them.
@the_transit_guy I used to canvas for voting to expand Marta and talking to people OTP..it’s not happening. People are so protective and selfish they look stupid. Most complained Marta would be raising taxes just to raise the crime in their area.
