Yet another brilliant speech to look for on video......Marian Wright Edelman
So many great points and great lines......my favorite that I remember was (paraphrasing), "remember, Noah's ark was built by amateurs, the Titanic was built by professionals." (used to empower people to act)

Brilliant speech all around.
