“A spirit of harmony can only survive if each of us remembers, when bitterness and self-interest seem to prevail, that we share a common destiny.
This country can ill afford to continue to function using less than half of its human resources, brain power, and kinetic energy.”
— Representative Barbara Jordan, Keynote Address, Democratic National Convention, July 12, 1976, New York City
