I remember growing up watching PBS and actually thinking the world I would grow up in would surely be better than the world before, especially with so many people watching people like Mr Rogers and Sesame Street and the slew of educational programs like NOVA.
I realize now that I was a shut-in nerd without involved parents and PBS was one of the only channels I could tune in on my little black-and-white television set.
Nobody else watched this stuff. If they did, they didn't internalize it, and if they did, they took all the wrong lessons from it. ("I AM special just the way I am, that means I deserve to have anything I want! yaaah white power!")
