Let’s Start a Movement-Slow Reading | Pat Leach | TEDxLincoln

In her talk she shares her idea about slowing down long enough to understand the world around, and by slowing down and spending time with some of the most colorful characters…who may or may not be real, we can learn a lot about ourselves and the world around us.
Pat is the Head of Lincoln’s Public Libraries and a lover of books of all sorts, shapes and sizes. She can think of nothing more wonderful than to spend time reading, unless it’s talking with people about the importance of libraries in our lives.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx

    What? Only few people watched this video? The injustice! This is criminally underrated.

    This video is surely underrated. Just 6k views? breaks my heart. This lady needs a bigger audience.

    I can't believe this video only has about 1,000 views. I didn't expect this video to have millions of views, but at least thousands more than it has.

    I've been a Slow Reader my whole life because I'm a life-long studier. Tried speed reading and it didn't make sense to skim and not absorb it all. Goes to show -- wait a while and what's unpopular will become popular again. What else is a new fad that will go away? Maybe more than 2 genders, and the trans movements?

    Surprisingly, the dead audience gave a standing ovation. Maybe because the talk finally ended and they can go back home 😅
