(Applause.) Throughout his longcareer in public service, Eric has built a powerful legacy of making sure that equal justice underthe law actually means something。rsquo。 unsung heroines like Evelyn Lowery. We honor the countlessAmericans, some who are in this room black, white, students, scholars, preachers,housekeepers, patriots all, who, with their bare hands, reached into the well of our nationamp。sfounding ideals and helped to nurture a more perfect union. Weamp。ve reminded ourselves thatprogress is not just absorbing what has been done itamp。s advancing whatamp。s left undone.
　　Even before President Johnson signed the Civil Rights Act into law, even as the debate draggedon in the Senate, he was already challenging America to do more and march further, to builda Great Society one, Johnson said, “。 “。he said. “。 To finish theunfinished work.
　　America has made stunning progress since that time, over the past 50 years even over thepast five years. But it is the unfinished work that drives us forward.
　　Some of our unfinished work lies beyond our borders. America is leading the effort to rally theworld against Russian aggression in Ukraine. America is leading the fight to contain andbat Ebola in Africa. America is building and leading the coalition that will degrade andultimately destroy the terrorist group known as ISIL. As Americans, we are leading, and wedonamp。t shy away from these responsibilities。rsquo。rsquo。rsquo。rsquo。rsquo。rsquo。rsquo。rsquo。rsquo。rsquo。rsquo。rsquo。rsquo。rsquo。rsquo。rsquo。rsquo。rsquo。rsquo。rsquo。rsquo。rsquo。rsquo。rsquo。 when AfricanAmerican unemployment is still twice as high as whiteunemployment。rsquo。rsquo。rsquo。rsquo。rsquo。rsquo。rsquo。rsquo。rsquo。rsquo。rsquo。rsquo。rsquo。rsquo。rsquo。rsquo。rsquo。rsquo。rsquo。 it has a corrosive effect onAmerica. It harms the munities that need law enforcement the most. It makes folks whoare victimized by crime and need strong policing reluctant to go to the police because theymay not trust them. And the worst part of it is it scars the hearts of our children. It scars thehearts of the white kids who grow unnecessarily fearful of somebody who doesnamp。t look likethem. It stains the heart of black children who feel as if no matter what he does, he will alwaysbe under suspicion. That is not the society we want. Itamp。s not the society that our childrendeserve. (Applause.) Whether youamp。re black or white, you donamp。t want that for America.
　　It was interesting Ferguson was used by some of Americaamp。s enemies and critics to deflectattention from their shortings overseas。rsquo。rsquo。America is special because we work to address our problems, to make our union more fight for more justice.
