Michelle Obama just introduced Bono at the Global Citizen Festival. Pearl Jam coming up soon.

Very good stuff overall. Malala Yousafzai just got done speaking.

Here is a live feed:

Global Citizen is a community of people like you. People who want to learn about and take action on the world’s biggest challenges—and use their power to get other people involved too.

We bring you stories and actions that make a difference. That help fight extreme poverty and inequality around the world, and support approaches that will make life more sustainable for people and the planet.

Unlock your power. Join us.

These events may not change everything in the world but progress IS being made and I encourage people to not lose faith in the power of people to change our world.

I understand some don't believe these events accomplish anything but I've been a fan of Farm Aid and I know it is helping large numbers of family farmers.

Every little bit helps to make this world a better place....

1. I've been watching

on and off all evening. There have been some really inspirational speakers and some great music. The crowd really loves the first lady and VP Biden.
