To tame the savageness of man

Some hailed this the greatest speech of all time.

No, not about his own dream.
No, not about going to the moon.
No, not about a new phone.

It's about how we move forward when dark forces pull us backwards.




Some days ago in Australia, we too saw a display of force. Against injustice. We saw a divide in our peoples.

To reclaim Australia?

On our streets our people showed this "savageness of man", to protest savagery and other injustices, at times with savagery.

Before today I have not seen this clip. Here are my immediate reflections:

  1. Oh have we got something to learn about history?
  2. True leadership comes at a great cost
  3. Where is a leader like that, for our country? Please stand up.
What does this speech do for you?
