It was possibly the most important major speech on race in America since Dr. King died.

Uh, there’s actually not much competition in that category.

The only other one that comes to mind is RFK’s speech (more of an impromptu eulogy) in Indianapolis the night that Dr. King was killed.

yeah, not much competition - including from the Clinton’s. Even when they held the bully-pulpit and actually had the golden opportunity to make positive changes…instead they cram welfare reform, NAFTA and no coattails down the throats of democrats of all colors…she was first-lady and in on all the strategies - she could have just as easy as given a major race speech in the 90’s when the clinton’s controlled the themes and agendas…

no, easier to sit on the sidelines and pick and bitch about what he said about GF or what he didn’t say about sexism…or cry about being treated mean…or complain when dem leaders in MICH and FLA follow rules…
