Hands Across America was a public fundraising event on Sunday, May 25, 1986, in which approximately 5 to 6.5 million people held hands for fifteen minutes in an (ostensible) attempt to form a continuous human chain across the contiguous United States.

Can't do that now, the consent forms alone would be a nightmare.

I worked with a guy around 2017 who'd participated and claimed to still have the T-shirt.

He also mentioned that he both tithed and donated to Planned Parenthood. I guess that's the kind of guy who grew up doing shite like Hands Across America. He was actually a pretty solid guy, if a bit politically misguided.
