Jeffrey Sachs knows and understands so much of US and world history and presents with such clarity and humanity that I feel this is the most important lesson I've ever heard. I wish everyone could hear him speak. And his near-final comment about morality -- and the lack of morality in our culture at this time -- is so deeply true. I'm so grateful for this presentation. I will share the link with many others. Suzanne Carlson, Greenfield MA
How relevant this is still for today’s geopolitical challenges. The Q&A session is also full of profound insights. Jeffery S. impresses me time and time again.
A very moving talk-for me and, I think, for Prof. Sachs as well. The good professor has become a voice of reason and agent of peace in his own right these past several years. He's a man of monumental moral and physical courage. His willingness to speak truth to power in shining a light on the path toward peace in Ukraine, and the US's proxie war against Russia, has been both inspiring and heartening for me and so many more like me. We owe him a debt of gratitude for his selfless work in service of world peace. Thank you Dr. Sachs
Professor Jeff Sachs has such a remarkable memory of the various details, names of people, chronology of events. He gave his whole lecture with few notes. He should be awarded the Nobel Prize for Peace.
@@magicroundabout5081 When you have war criminals in the white house repeatedly receiving Nobel Peace Prize, you will realize that winning it for having a good memory and reciting it in a speech to promote peace is still far more deserving for the award
John F. Kennedy’s quest for peace was one of the defining elements of his presidency. He recognized the complexities of the Cold War and sought to ease tensions through diplomacy, striving to build a world where dialogue triumphed over conflict. His iconic speech at the American University in 1963 called for a shift towards global cooperation and understanding, emphasizing that peace could only be achieved through mutual respect and the rejection of nuclear war. Kennedy's efforts-such as the establishment of the Nuclear Test Ban Treaty showed his commitment to safeguarding humanity's future. Though his life was tragically cut short, his vision for peace continues to inspire those who seek a world free from violence and war.
I admire Jeffrey Sachs and his look on much going on in our world. And the American University talk by John F. Kennedy was indeed the greatest of talks. I think Eisenhower's Cross of Iron speech where he talks about the costs of military versus domestic costs.
With this speech, Professor Sachs has exceeded his standing as an academic. It is evident that he holds the essential makings in their entirety of a world class diplomat for peace. It is through the individuals who are of his convictions that at this time the survival of humanity must depend. May the Lord bless you sir.
I listen the President Kennedy's "American Univ. Speech" of 6/1063 ...and other speeches, each & every one very clear, important and what a nation, what a world we'd have today, had Kennedy's speeches been more heeded and we could have had him in the White House 8 years. I think of him, of Bobby Kennedy all the time since I was 20 years old when he was murdered. Oh, how I hope/pray Bobby the son of Bobby Senior is soon president and may God use him to get our ugly ways far, far away from us again.
Thanks. I couldn't help but think about what could have made everything better...and have concluded that the awareness, understanding and therefore further development of people in general, your average person in the world...would have helped....therefore a special shout out to the great professors out there sharing with the rest of us something to think about...so that the mind is more sharp. Thanks!
You tell the truth, people follow you.... you lie, people find out.... they run away from you... it's a natural concept of human intelligence... I am a life long conservative, but if Mr. Kennedy is nominated, for the 1st time I will vote, support, volunteer and recruit my families and friends to do the same... When Mr. Kennedy speaks, he speaks like a faithful and honorable father speaks with his family 👪. May God grand him success and protect him..Amen.
A Very relevant speech with a lot of pragmatic. The genius of this narrative is this useful dose of naivety which really enrich the analysis equation. Allways the pleasure to lesson to you
I love to listen to this man...I am a 72 yr old Québécois. In 2023 I find we are at the same crossroads however we don't have a John F Kennedy to enlighten us. We have an adult with an adolescent mind governing Canada. The people I liked up to outside Québec and Canada were Nelson Mandela, Martin Luther King, Robert Kennedy and of course John F Kennedy. I could add to this Rosa Parks. I was 13 when President Kennedy was assassinated. I was in school that day and we were brought to a large room in the basement of the school. Upon the announcement of the death of John F Kennedy we all started to cry. We were in Gatineau Québec and most of us understood that the world would never be the same.
He want to end US involvement in Vietnam after the overthrow of Diem Family, take away Printing money power from FED. Of course, CIA and military-corporation group killed him.
I can still remember my 1st grade teacher explaining to the class of how Stalin was such a hero for bringing Russia fully into the Industrial Age. Yup. I still remember that. Of course none of the 1st grade children knew anything of what went down with that little dance. Getting older is an amazing experience.
As a six year old in 1962 , all I knew was , this nation called Cuba , may destroy the world ? To this day I have never been so scared. What a memory to have for the very start of life !
"Stalin was a murderer, he was paranoid and he was crushing trying to defend Soviet interests" - Oh, how touching! If defending the interests of his country is a symptom of paranoia, then undoubtedly Putin is also paranoid. :) "The Soviet Union was afraid of the revival of Germany," I wonder if Mr. Sachs himself believes what he says? The Soviet Union was building factories in East Germany. We were loved there. The Germans remembered how Russian soldiers fed them in 1945 from field kitchens. German children came to our yard, wanted to be friends with us. I am a witness to this, I lived in the GDR in 1971-1975. Children are not adults, they do not know how to pretend, they believe in what adults tell them at home. The Germans were ashamed of what their soldiers did during the war in Russia. I've seen it myself. In the summer, I spent almost all the time visiting the German old man and old woman and called them grandma and grandpa, they wanted it that way. Who was afraid of whom, Mr. Sachs? This is a blatant lie! What nonsense to say that we left Eastern Europe because we were afraid of the West. If we were afraid, would we allow the West to approach our very borders? No, we really wanted peace, we believed in good, so we believed in the good intentions of the West. Each expects from the other what he himself is capable of. You won't understand us because you don't know how to be kind. My God! What cowards you are! You are afraid all the time and that's why you invent all sorts of provocations, that's why you are hoarding weapons, that's why you expect aggression from others. Stop being afraid and you will see that the world does not work the way you see it.
I read that Eisenhower ok'd the assassination of Patrice Lumumba. I find that hard to accept believing that Eisenhower was too decent to allow such a thing. I hope it is inaccurate, or there is more to that reporting that sheds better light on it.
36:40 a brief summary here leaving out much information about the potus struggle with the CIA and Military about authorizing this invasion, and apparent opinionated statement of the speaker. Not a subject to personalize and leave out the details IMHO
I think its unfair to call Krushchev stupid for engaging in tit for tat missile bases. Why is it ok for US to escalate first, but not ok for USSR to respond in equal measure?

It is so sad to hear this speech and the great one by JFK ( ruclips.net/video/0fkKnfk4k40/видео.html ) and to compare it to our current foreign (and domestic) policies and where this country and our so-called leaders are today. I think Sachs is right - the problem is one of morality more than anything else. Sachs recently said, just before the 2024 election that he was not voting for either of the duopoly's candidates for Pres - I had already decided to vote for Jill Stein and did. Did I throw my vote away as many have accused me of doing? In the years to come, I can honestly say, that I do not have the blood of Ukraine or especially Gaza on my hands. Ironically both of those countries have single payer healthcare, my second most important political issue. I was 12 when Kennedy was killed and I have yet to vote for a pro-war president. Remember, Obama ran on the promise of ending the war in Iraq. Oh, wait - we're still there, aren't we? So sad.
Sir, I stopped listening to your speech, after l Soviet Union lost about 100 hundred thousand settlements and towns completely raised to the ground. And things like what Allies did to Dresden, Tokyo, Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Soviets had every right to get Germany off the map, and they could make sure if they wanted to. Because they suffered 27 million losses in that war. More than a half of that figure was civilians. My grand dad lost his previous wife and two daughters, and after the war he met my grand mother, and that's how I came about. He met her in concentration camp. In Buchenwald.
Professor Jeffrey Sachs is a peacemaker in all sense of the word. He risks being bullied, ostracized and physically attacked by contradicting the wishes of the Corporate mainstream media and the military industrial complexes. He is sacrificing every moment of his life in educating the world about the true history of the United States of America!
34:00 Anyone says that the Jews were not the winners of World War II is sleeping, and anyone believes that the Soviet that did nothing must inherit the most luxurious European nations such as Bulgaria such as Romania such as Yugoslavia Albania these are very good weather very good agricultural countries these are the Los Angeles and Floridas of Europe why the Soviet should inherit those countries? Poland alone was a Switzerland at the time wa very wealthy country, it is obvious that Jews want to eliminate all the Gentiles so they pushed America to scare the hell out of the world by the Hiroshima bomb then they stole the technology and gave it to the Soviet so there will be a thermonuclear World War III that would annihilate the entire gentiles, and John F Kennedy and Eisenhower were very aware of this conspiracy, there is no other explanation that after the shutdown of the Soviet Union, North Korea should become a nuclear power and we know the South Korea and North Korea are ready to unite America doesn't allow them and we know there is no such thing as USA it's called JewSA
Every American should hear this speech, especially those who lead the American government.
Every human being should listen to this. I speak as an Australian.
What’s poignant lecture! It’s so moving and I wish we could have a leader like this in the West today!

It's pointless to share. People don't care. Too propagandized and/or stupid.
This man is so important, if I was religious I would pray for him, and thank god for him. Why can't we have someone like him in charge?
How relevant this is still for today’s geopolitical challenges. The Q&A session is also full of profound insights. Jeffery S. impresses me time and time again.
They should play this in every US high school so the Americans can finally see for themselves what the world sees!

Nothing will be fixed Until PEACE IS Guaranteed
Kudos to Jeffrey Sachs! Amazing speech!
Remarkable Speech
Brilliant Presentation....I can listen for hours to the Professor and agree with the contents of his numerous interaction.

I too felt in love with this speech
Crystal clear - such a brilliant mind, as usual.
Peace and Peaceful Co-existence of The World is possible

Thanks Dennis
This is the History that lead to the Great Speech by President Kennedy
A Very relevant speech with a lot of pragmatic. The genius of this narrative is this useful dose of naivety which really enrich the analysis equation. Allways the pleasure to lesson to you
The 2000 year old secret society has to be continued to be exposed and challenged and world needs leaders of Kennedy's calibre for it..!
The book "Uspeakable" goes into Kennedy's fear of being taken out of power by the generals and CIA.

My uncle and we were aware that Russia was never defeated in WW II and remember in Battle of Stalingrad.

This lecture was well done, even with the speaker inserting his opinion at times.
Can't give this song enough loves. Please add for me.

The link is dead.
same to me
Respect n RiP ...
Great, but where is JFK's speech?
See the video description
Conflict leads to the Majority Poor Not to realize Their potential, especially , Women, children and Disabled Among other vulnerable groups
"Stalin was a murderer, he was paranoid and he was crushing trying to defend Soviet interests" - Oh, how touching! If defending the interests of his country is a symptom of paranoia, then undoubtedly Putin is also paranoid. :)

True and sad
And let me add this paraphrase of Michael Parenti: The republic is starved so that the empire might be fed. So true!
Conflict leads to the Destruction of Humanity and the Enviroment.

The Challenge is always the same
Trade 'the Good' in for a game?
The Task betrays when on board
The cutting board of Caesar's hoard
CH- To keep in control
By playing a role
Avoiding to serve for the Whole
The empire preachers talk fine
To keep all its victims on line
Prosperity preachers, these vanity teachers
Make dollars by asking a dime CH
This empire was doomed from the start
The second it sold out its Heart
The wars that soon followed
From hearts rendered hollowed
Once power and greed played its part CH
The Challenge is always just Moral
Configured into to what seems 'normal'
Our task is to keep this on track
On the journey of making this fact CH
AFTER THAT. SPEECH CIA KILLED HIM 😢
