Not only is the American actor an expert polyglot, he is also a fervent activist.
His pledge to provide a free swearing class was accompanied by a condition: 2,500 of his followers would first have to click a link for the non-profit organisation HeadCount and check their eligibility to vote in the next US presidential election November 3.in which he explains how to say the equivalent of “take a hike” in Swahili, Czech, Maori, Haitian and even Basque.This amusing initiative is not the only one of its kind.
The goal of the initiative is to remind 50,000 young people to register to vote in the run-up to the election in the US, in which Democratic candidate and former vice-president under Barack Obama, Joe Biden, will stand against the current incumbent in the White House, Donald Trump. When they check their electoral status on the HeadCount website, the future voters will gain access to “exclusive experiences, performances, and memorabilia donated by artists and entertainers” like a video chat with Lenny Kravitz and a mini-unplugged concert with Dave Matthews. — AFP-Relaxnews
