"Seneca Falls and Selma and Stonewall".

[chieftain]

There was much to applaud in his speech today, but those words exemplify not only how much the world has changed but also how these events are linked to our foundational American beliefs of equality and inclusion.
Words have power and our President delivered some powerful messages to his fellow citizens on what we have done and what we have yet to do.

1. The whole paragraph is awesome ...

We, the people, declare today that the most evident of truths – that all of us are created equal – is the star that guides us still; just as it guided our forebears through Seneca Falls, and Selma, and Stonewall; just as it guided all those men and women, sung and unsung, who left footprints along this great Mall, to hear a preacher say that we cannot walk alone; to hear a King proclaim that our individual freedom is inextricably bound to the freedom of every soul on Earth.
