"...and folks, we gotta to stand up. We gotta move. We gotta change."
Biden’s closing words stand out in a sadly all-too-familiar statement that was seemingly made countless times during the Obama administration. With only a brief allusion to Trump’s deplorable tweet on the protests in Minnesota, Biden called for Americans to stand together with communities of color, and for people with influence in the this country to deal with the abuses of power wrought upon these same communities.
“We got to make real the promise of America, which we never fully grasped.”
The whole statement lasts for about 5 minutes, 27 seconds, but it accomplishes more than a rambling hour-long speech from our current President could ever hope.
