Talk World Radio: Kennedy’s Peace Speech Set to Music

AUDIO:

Talk World Radio is recorded on Zoom.

Here is this week’s video and all the videos on Youtube.

VIDEO:

This week on Talk World Radio will be unusual. We’re going to listen to a piece of music, and it’s an unusual piece of music. It’s a speech set to music. President John F. Kennedy’s June 10, 1963 commencement address at American University is certainly the best speech ever made by a U.S. president and one that it would be hard to imagine a U.S. president giving today.

“Peace for All Time” was created by Irthlingz.
