Bruce Springsteen’s speach in Lille, France, May 27th 2025.

Описание: I spent my life singing about where we have succeeded, and where we have come up short and living up to our civic ideas and our dreams.

But things are happening now that are altering the very nature of my country’s democracy and they are too important to ignore.

So first, let me thank you for indulging me.

In America. My home. They are persecuting people for using their right to free speech and voicing their decent. This is happening now.

In America, the richest men are taking satisfaction and mandeling the worlds poorest children to sickness and death.This is happening now.

In my country, they are taking sadistic pleasure in the pain they inflict on loyal American workers.

They are rolling back historic civil rights legislation that has led to a more juste society.

They are abandoning our great allies. Siding with dictators against those struggling for their freedom.

They are defunding American Universities that wount bow down to their ideological demands.

They are removing American residents off American streets, and without due process of law deporting them to foreign detention centres and prisons. This is happening now.

A majority of our elected representatives have utterly failed to protect the American people from the abuses of an unfit president and a rough government.

They have no concerns, no concerns or ideas of what it means to be deeply American.

The America that I have sung to you about for 50 years is real. And regardless of the many faults it’s a GREAT COUNTRY WITH GREAT PEOPLE so we will survive this moment.

I have hope…I have hope because I believe in the truth of what the great American writer James Baldwin said. He said; “In this world, there isn’t as much humanity as one would like, but there is enough” Let’s pray…….
