A Hashtag Is Not A Movement - Shonda Rhimes' Dartmouth Commencement Speech

She made a lot of great points, the hashtag thing is just one.

Nothing really to add. Just thought it might interest peeps. I particularly gave pause to the part when she says the truth of it is, when you have wild success in one area of your life, you are typically failing in another.

Never mind. Redundant.

Some other notable points:

"Be a doer not a dreamer."
""Dedicate some time each week to make the world suck less."
"Don't be an asshole."

Well, the conventional wisdom is to just ignore her.

And she's kind of a good example of "a hashtag is not a movement"...it may be the start of one or the inspiration but all movements require actual action...doing something, following through.
