  • To Fulfill These Rights"
    "TO FULFILL THESE RIGHTS" SPEECHES JUNE 1-2, 1966 WASHINGTON , D. C. Major Addresses at the WHITE HOUSE CONFERENCE •• TO FULFILL THESE· RIGHTS." June 1-2, 1966 FOREWORD By Ben W. Heineman, Chairman The White House Conference To Fulfill These Rights was a significant milestone in this nation's drive to remove all the remaining barriers which prevent Negro Americans from full and free participation in our society. More than 2500 men and women, representing every facet of American life, came to Washington on June 1 and 2, 1966, to pool their knowledge, energy and resources in this common cause. Out of their discussions came agreement on basic programs and approaches; the foundation of what should be considered the nation's immediate business in the achievement of equal opportunity. This blueprint for action, published in a separate document, is realistic and attainable. Because their messages played an important role in setting forth these goals, the five addresses to the entire assembly are reprinted in this pamphlet. We believe that these statements by President Lyndon B. Johnson, Vice President Ilube-:t H. Humphrey, Honorary Chairman A. Philip Randolph, Solicitor Gent!ral Thurgood Marshall, and Council Member Roy Wilkins, ~ill be a continuing source of inspiration to all whose support is needed as we, as a nation, move forward to "Fulfill These Rights."
