The commencement speech 'Don't Allow Demagogues to Divide Us" (2017) by Bernie Sanders is a speech to the Brooklyn College graduates of 2017.
In order to demonstrate his resemblance to the audience, Sanders starts talking about the year he was at Brooklyn College himself.
After that, he explains that he went out into the world to experience it, and then he continues with some of his own experiences.
As a child, his family struggled to get food on the table, and his father fled from Poland where the political questions were about life and death.
Sanders believes they should now stand together as a union and not let demagogues divide them according to race, religion, sexuality, gender, etc.
The Republican leadership makes the rich richer today, while the middle-class shrinks and the poor get fewer and fewer rights.
In conclusion, he argues that it will affect our next generation and that we need to stand up and regain a democracy that benefits everyone, not just a small percentage of the population.
