Uncle Walt, Is That You?

This is allegedly an old wax cylinder recording of Walt Whitman reading "America" in 1890. While it's been documented that Walt did a test for Thomas Edison, some think this is fake. You be the judge. I love the animation created for this video no matter who it is.

I've heard the jury's out on this but that most experts consider it a hoax.
