Hi Mountaindewed. I also saw that documentary and remember the horrible backlash he received for trying to teach children to be loving and accepting in this world.
I went to the theater to see it. Many people in the theater cried during it, including me. Not just because of a love for Mister Rogers' messages, but because he represented such a contrast to the ugly hate that's been boiling over in the country and world, and will surely intensify. It's become so stressful and dangerous...for all!
