JFK On Revolution - March 13, 1962

<p>For too long, my country, the wealthiest nation, failed to carry out its full responsibilities to its sister republics.</p> <p>Those who possess wealth and power must accept their own responsibilities.</p> <p>They must lead the fight for those basic reforms, which alone can preserve the fabric of their societies.</p> <p>Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable.</p> <p>President John F. Kennedy at the First Anniversary of the Alliance for Progress - March 13, 1962</p> <p>Photograph: Allstar/Cinetext/Warner Bros</p> <p>Full speech: <a href='https://empathymedialab.podbean.com/e/jfk-alliance-for-progress-first-anniversary-speech-march-13-1962/'>https://EmpathyMediaLab.podbean.com/e/jfk-alliance-for-progress-first-anniversary-speech-march-13-1962/</a> </p>
