So ignore most of the snarky commentary in the article around this speech, and just pop forward in the YouTube of the whole commencement ceremony to 1:08:16 or so to hear Danielle Allen of Harvard talk about democracy and civic engagement. It’s short and compelling.
Also, and the reason this caught my eye, it was at my alma mater, Pomona College (though back in our day, we held all that graduation stuff inside the building behind them, not out on the quad … serves ’em right to get rained on).
Anyway, good speech, under 10 minutes in length. And if you want, you can cut straight to the video.

At Pomona College, Danielle Allen spoke about the Declaration of Independence and its electric cord.
