| Description: | President LYNDON BAINES JOHNSON (LBJ, Lyndon Johnson, Lyndon B. Johnson) "Let me make one principle of this administration abundantly clear: All of these increased opportunities - in employment, in education, in housing, and in every field-must be open to Americans of every color." MS EDWARD M. KENNEDY (Teddy Kennedy, Ted Kennedy, Edward m. "Ted" Kennedy, Edward Kennedy, D-Massachusettes) "As far as the writ of Federal law will run, we must abolish not some, but all racial discrimination. For this is not merely an economic issue, or a social, political, or international issue. It is a moral issue, and it must be met by the passage this session of the bill now pending in the House. All members of the public should have equal access to facilities open to the public. All members of the public should be equally eligible for Federal benefits that are financed by the public. All members of the public should have an equal chance to vote for public officials and to send their children to good public schools and to contribute their talents to the public good." MS CLAUDIA TAYLOR (Lady Bird) JOHNSON & LYNDA BIRD JOHNSON & LUCI JOHNSON. "Today, Americans of all races stand side by side in Berlin and in Viet Nam. They died side by side in Korea. Surely they can work and eat and travel side by side in their own country." | |
