For January 2024 several of us will be participating in the “30-Day 6 Degrees of Separation Coach4aday Challenge”-today we learn about a former US President ULYSSES S GRANT and his great-great grandson John Griffiths.
Ulysses S. Grant, born in 1822, served as the 18th President of the United States from 1869 to 1877. A prominent military leader during the American Civil War, Grant played a pivotal role in the Union’s victory, earning him acclaim and paving the way for his political career. Despite facing challenges and controversies during his presidency, including economic difficulties and corruption scandals, Grant is often remembered for his efforts to promote civil rights and reconstruction in the aftermath of the Civil War.
Rules of the Challenge
Many people have heard of this concept. The notion of six degrees of separation grew out of work conducted by the social psychologist Stanley Milgram in the 1960s. It then became a 1993 film named appropriately “Six Degrees of Separation.”
Organizing a six degrees of separation challenge involves creating a chain of people, each connected to the next by a mutual acquaintance. The goal is to demonstrate that any two people in the world can be connected through a chain of six or fewer personal connections.
How to Participate
Here is how to participate:
- Identify the First and Last Person in the Chain.
