To Err Is Human. To Blame Someone

People In Places Many Of Us Never Heard Of, Whose Names We Can't Pronounce Or Even Spell, Are Speaking Up For Themselves. They Speak In Languages We Once Classified As Exotic But Whose Mastery Is Now Essential For Our Diplomats And Businessmen. But What They Say Is Very Much The Same The World Over. They Want A Decent Standard Of Living. They Want Human Dignity And A Voice In Their Own Futures. They Want Their Children To Grow Up Strong And Healthy And Free.

This Is The First Generation In All Of Recorded History That Can Do Something About The Scourge Of Poverty. We Have The Means To Do It. We Can Banish Hunger From The Face Of The Earth.

When The Dignity Of One Person Is Denied, All Of Us Are Denied.
