"The value of peaceful protests, activism, organizing is it reminds the society this is not yet done."

"This is not only personal for me, because of who I am and who Michelle is and who are family members are and what our experiences are, but as President, I consider this to be one of the most important..."

"The United States will remain a friend to those who seek peace and progress and will stand with the people of South Sudan."

"I urge you to renew the spirit of hope, unity, and fortitude that enabled you almost 4 years ago to come together and vote for a brighter future."
