Tom Hanks delivers powerful graduation speech to class of 2020: 'You've been chosen' - TODAYshow
He continued:"Part of your lives will forever be identified as 'before,' the same way other generations tell time like, 'that was before the war' or 'that was before the internet,' or 'that was before Beyoncé.' The word 'before' is going to carry great weight with you.""You have finished Wright State during the great reset, the great reboot," he explained.
He added:"You are chosen in that way, to enter into the competition of life just when so many have had to recover and refresh and restart and reawaken and to retake up the hard work and unshirkable responsibilities of making the world not only our own but of your own. To conclude, Hanks stressed,"You chosen ones are going to form the new structures and to find the new realities and make the new world, the world after all that we have been through."
