John F. Kennedy said it well in this video: “Legal remedies are not at hand, redress is fought in the streets in demonstration or in protests which create tension or threatened violence…we therefore face a moral crisis as a country and people that can not be met by repressive police action It can not be left with increased demonstrations in the streets. It can not be be ..by token moves or taught. It is time to act in your congress, in your state or the local legislative body and above all in all of daily lives. It is not enough to put the blame on others the problem on one section of the country or another. But for the facts that we face a great change is at hand and our task our obligation is to make that revolution, that change peaceful and constructive for all. Those who do nothing are inviting shame as well as violence. Those who act boldly are recognizing right as well as reality. This is one country. It has become one country because all of us and all the people who came here had an equal chance to develop their talents. We can not say to 10% of the population you can’t have that right, you children can’t have a chance to develop what ever talents they have. That the only way they are going to get their rights is to go into the streets and demonstrate. I think we owe them and we owe ourselves a better country than that.
