Good evening, my fellow citizens. This afternoon, following a series of threats and defiant
00:00:00
statements, the presence of Alabama National Guardsmen was required on the University of
00:00:12
Alabama to carry out the final and unequivocal order of the United States District Court
00:00:19
of the Northern District of Alabama. That order called for the admission of two clearly
00:00:26
qualified young Alabama residents who happened to have been born Negro. That they were admitted
00:00:32
peacefully on the campus is due in good measure to the conduct of the students of the University
00:00:38
of Alabama who met their responsibilities in a constructive way. I hope that every American,
00:00:44
regardless of where he lives, will stop and examine his conscience about this and other
00:00:52
related incidents. This nation was founded by men of many nations and backgrounds. It
00:00:57
was founded on the principle that all men are created equal and that the rights of every
00:01:03
man are diminished when the rights of one man are threatened. Today we are committed
00:01:08
to a worldwide struggle to promote and protect the rights of all who wish to be free. And
00:01:16
when Americans are sent to Vietnam or West Berlin, we do not ask for whites only. It
00:01:23
ought to be possible, therefore, for American students of any color to attend any public
00:01:31
institution they select without having to be backed up by troops. It ought to be possible
00:01:37
for American consumers of any color to receive equal service in places of public accommodation,
00:01:45
such as hotels and restaurants and theaters and retail stores without being forced to
00:01:53
resort to demonstrations in the street. And it ought to be possible for American citizens
00:01:59
of any color to register and to vote in a free election without interference or fear
00:02:05
of reprisal. It ought to be possible, in short, for every American to enjoy the privileges
00:02:12
of being American without regard to his race or his color.
