OK, well, is it in context or just a line like that?  And what could people not have been aware of before?  Hmmm.  As a person, something would have to change for me or in front of me.  As a people, well, the world changes all the time as things are invented.

I did a Google search on the phrase and it really put in context.  Seems there as a country where they did not have TV.  This was a statement made right after they got TVs.
