President Biden's State of The Union Address centers on National Urban League's “D3" Agenda to Defend Democracy, Demand Diversity, Defeat Poverty

I know the American story. Again and again, I’ve seen the contest between competing forces in the battle for the soul of our nation. Between those who want to pull America back to the past and those who want to move America into the future. My lifetime has taught me to embrace freedom and democracy. A future based on core values that have defined America. Honesty, decency, dignity, equality. To respect everyone. To give everyone a fair shot. To give hate no safe harbor.”

– President Joe Biden, 2024 State of the Union Address 

President Biden’s third State of the Union Address on Thursday met with overwhelmingly positive reviews for both its powerful content and his energetic delivery.

Falling as it did just days after the release of the National Urban League’s 2024 State of Black America® report – which included a special section, Evaluation for Progress: Report on the Biden Harris Administration – it’s worth noting the contrast between this address and the 1976 address by President Gerald Ford that inspired the original State of Black America report.
