I went to the graduation the other night of my first great grandchild - he's 21 or 22; and right at the graduation i looked, and 92 percent of those who graduated at the university of illinois were females. where can a black female, who are now the lawyers, the engineers; they are the ones graduating with top degrees; where will they find in a black male a counterpart that is equal to them? we are filling the jails, we are filling the prisons.

People look at things differently. imagine going to a village in southern sudan and try to explain to someone there the concept of life insurance or retirement. go to vietnam and say retirement. retirement in another country is your body is too racked with pain and your hands are too arthritic from the life in the rice patty fields, so you can't work anymore. so you move in with your son and his new wife takes care of you because that's how families work there.

Social security is fine for those at or near retirement today. for those receiving their checks today, don't worry. it's going to be there for you. for those that are nearing their retirement years, don't worry, it's going to be there for you. but for your kids - for your boy and my boy, and for their children, for our kids and grandkids, it's a real big question as to whether or not the system's going to be there.

Imagine if you had genuine, high-quality early-childhood education for every child, and suddenly every black child in america - but also every poor white child or latino [child], but just stick with every black child in america - is getting a really good education. and they're graduating from high school at the same rates that whites are, and they are going to college at the same rates that whites are, and they are able to afford college at the same rates because the government has universal programs. so now they're all graduating.

I can see little consistency in a type of christian activity which preaches the gospel on the street corners and at the ends of earth, but neglects the children of the covenant by abandoning them to a cold and unbelieving secularism.

To heal will require real effort, and a change of heart, from all of us. to heal means that we will begin to look upon one another with respect and tolerance instead of prejudice, distrust and hatred. we will have to teach our children-as well as ourselves-to love the diversity of humanity....we can do it. yes, you and i and all of us together. now is the time. now is the only possible time. let the great healing begin.
