Video: Barack Obama’s Speech On Race In America
Democratic primary candidate Barack Obama was in Philadelphia today for one speech,that tackles the difficult issue of race in America.Here is a central piece of the speech:
The fact is that the comments that have been made and the issues that have surfaced over the last few weeks reflect the complexities of race in this country that we’ve never really worked through – a part of our union that we have yet to perfect. And if we walk away now, if we simply retreat into our respective corners, we will never be able to come together and solve challenges like health care, or education, or the need to find good jobs for every American.
