Bono Preaches the Gospel of Social Justice at Georgetown

I would suggest to you that the biggest obstacle in the way (of fulfilling human potential) right now is extreme poverty. Poverty so extreme that it brutalizes, it vandalizes human dignity. Poverty so extreme it laughs at the concept of human dignity. Poverty so extreme it doubts how far we've traveled in our journey of equality; the journey that began with Wilberforce taking on slavery and a journey that will not end until misery and deprivation are in stocks.
