Believe me, this video is an amazing way to start your day (and guaranteed to bring a smile to your face). Who doesn’t love an elementary school kid in a sharp suit talking JT, sunsets, puppies and #sqaudgoals, all while getting us pumped to change the world?  

Kid President has been killing the motivational speech game since his first Youtube video came out in 2012, so he’s the perfect candidate for getting the world on board with some squad I mean, Global Goals.

As he says, OPEN YOUR EYES,  it’s pretty cool that we’re all alive on the same planet at the same time, and we have to MAXIMIZE what that coolness means.

This means ending extreme poverty. Eliminating injustice and world hunger. Ensuring everyone has access to quality education. And so much more.

Kid President uses the analogy of a school cafeteria, and I'm into it. Who doesn’t remember the anxiety of finding a spot to sit in the lunchroom? Of figuring out where you belong?

“In the lunchroom of the world there shouldn’t be a ‘cool’ table. The whole lunchroom should be one big cool table… A table where everybody’s invited, where everybody has a seat, where everybody has enough. That’s the kind of table I want to be at. That’s the kind of world I want to live in.”

Kid President, I couldn’t agree more.
