We're working together to advance the dignity of all of our citizens.

We welcome that, we don't simply recognize it.

We will be judged—as a people, as a society, and as a country—on where we go from here.

If somebody says they want to come build something here, are they hiring African workers?

History is in our hands.

The more dialogue we have on those issues, I think because we are democracies that stand for human rights and stand for certain principles, the truth is we should be aligned internationally.

I would not be here were it not for those freedom fighters.

I congratulate Chairperson Dlamini-Zuma on the 50th anniversary of the formation of the Organization of African Unity.

A few days ago, I unveiled a new national plan to confront the growing threat of a changing climate.

We are committed to broaden and deepen the U.S. - African Union partnership.

I commend the African Union's leadership on regional peace and security.

The United States cannot do it by itself.

This is a region on the move.

Our commitment to progress and human dignity extends to our shared efforts to combat HIV/AIDS.

The United States has helped to forge a strong and swift global response against hunger and food insecurity.

Africa is ready to do business and that there's huge potential there.

I believe that Africa is rising and it wants to partner with us, not to be dependent, but to be self-sufficient.

Feed the Future is the U.S. Government's global hunger and food security initiative.
