Patrick Stewart on Violence Against Women

I just discovered this video, created in 2009. It features everybody’s esteemed captain* and knight, Sir Patrick Stewart, talking about his childhood, and the effect of his father’s violence against his mother on Patrick and his brother. It is mesmerizing. Please, take a moment to watch.

*We can argue best Trek captain later. But you’ve got to admit he’s not a bad one to follow into the great unknowns of space.
