Hello:
One of my favorite speeches is: Is History Against Us. Dr. Jernigan delivered it in 1973. Dr. Jernigan's 1990 speech talking about the first fifty years is also a great speech.
Regards,

Hi all,
As I am a newer member of the NFB, and starting to get interested
in the history of the Federation, I have a question for you more
experienced Federationists and history buffs. :) This could also
start a great discussion that may help many of us find some
historical information. If you had to pick, what are your
personal favorite National Convention banquet speeches from Dr.
tenBroek, Dr. Jernigan, and Dr. Maurer? I ask this so I can get
recommendations for banquet speeches I may want to read and/or
listen to. Please let us know!
Chris
