It's not every day Barack Obama gives your graduation speech. In honor of LeBron James' star-studded virtual "Graduate Together" ceremony for the class of 2020 on Saturday night, the 44th president of the United States stepped up to the plate to deliver some uplifting words in these challenging times.
After all, the coronavirus pandemic and social distancing protocols have shuttered schools for months and put an end to traditional graduation ceremonies this year.
Fortunately, the former president took the opportunity to acknowledge the challenges each graduate has faced thus far in their lifetime, comforted them about having to miss out on those graduation traditions and encouraged them as they head into the uncertain future. .
