Lyndon Johnson: “I do not believe that you want it said of your generation that you committed social suicide.”

Thank you all for your welcome and for the wonderful work that you carry on.

In Witness Whereof, I have hereunto set my hand this twentieth day of January in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and sixty-nine and of the Independence of the United States of America the one hundred and ninety-third.

I believe deeply in your cause and I believe in you.

In that pursuit, Mr. President, United States support will be gladly given.
