President John Kennedy in Congress of the movement for civil rights bill, has asked its rapid passage not only for reasons of economic efficiency, the world of diplomacy or domestic tranquillity, but more importantly because it is correct. “Last week, see you later, the day of Senate USA by a vote of 73-27 last bill-and strengthen considerably changed.

The bill died difficult opponents. She educated, no amendment after amendment in the expectation that the changes are adopted, but as a long-term effort, without delay, the hour of truth. In one day, the Senate took 34 roll calls for an alltime record. It was the pace, a place that a senator rights of citizens collapsed on the ground, his name is called, shouted “No”, then spoke to a colleague and asked him what he was he had voted against. In total, 115 amendments have been passed between fenced and the final vote, and only one of any great substance has been approved. The package was written by the Republican leader Everett Dirksen and approved by the Senate and the democratic management accountable.

Everything about Mammy. Among the conditions fenced, I have the week, each senator has been limited to a total of speechmaking one hour on all applications. For the day before the final vote, Georgia Democrat Richard Russell, head of filibustering armed forces, has much more time, was appointed to add. He did it with tears in her eyes: “We fought the good fight, until we have been overwhelmed and gagged.

We want to solve it, so that Negro, a woman can all in a pharmacy and a glass of water, if they are thirsty. That is what counts. ”

On this point, Florida Democrat George Smathers was in the act of crying Pastore: “Not a word, the senator from Rhode Island knows whereof he speaks! Could any pharmacy in all and you get a glass of water. “furthermore, continues Smathers, it is discrimination in the North and South, Pastore had no right to obtain, holy and powerful.” Pastore said: “Well, if you have not yet segregation and discrimination, then you do not have to fear from this bill. “
