On May 25, 1986, something amazing happened across the United States. Over six million people joined hands, forming a human chain that stretched all the way from New York City to Long Beach, California.
The event, called Hands Across America, brought strangers together as neighbors. Celebrities like Michael Jackson and Lionel Richie helped draw attention, but it was everyday people—parents, children, workers, and students—who made the real difference by standing together to fight hunger and homelessness.
For fifteen minutes, this living chain crossed cities, deserts, farms, and rivers, showing that even in a big and diverse country, people can unite for a common cause.
The event raised millions for food banks and housing programs, but its greatest gift was hope. It reminded everyone that when we reach out and join hands, we can create something bigger than ourselves—and that spirit of unity is needed now more than ever.🥰
