Description: 

Speech by Ann Richards which examines the declining level of life in the United States, starting in the 1980's. Richards calls for the United States to invest in its youth. She points to the legacy of Thurgood Marshall, who worked against history to change the United States. The increasing conservative nature of the Supreme Court, however, is symptomatic of the indulgent binge of the 1980's. The Middle class is held together by 2 paychecks; inner cities have become war zones; the world has become leaderless; health care is no longer available for many people. Richards concludes with a call for all people to realize they are the country, despite gender and race.|TO INVEST IN AMERICA, OR INVEST IN THE PEOPLE / Ann Richards. - Speech by Ann Richards which examines the declining level of life in the United States, starting in the 1980's.
