Michael J. Fox: Finding Strength in the Face of Adversity

Michael J. Fox reflects on the enduring popularity of the Back To The Future movie series and how it resonates with people in today's "bully culture." He describes Parkinson's disease as a bully and emphasizes the importance of resilience and courage in facing challenges. The film's David and Goliath story still holds relevance for audiences, striking chords that they may not otherwise recognize. Despite his battle with Parkinson's, Michael maintains his sense of humor and founded the Michael J. Fox Foundation to fund research for a cure. The foundation has raised $2 billion and receives support from celebrities like Stevie Nicks at its annual gala. The collective effort aims for significant advancements in Parkinson's research.
