Bobby Kennedy Ripple of Hope Poster RKF Speech

A Ripple of Hope Bobby Kennedy Silhouette Edition A single ripple emanates outward on Mendums Pond in Durham, NH, with the silhouette of Bobby Kennedy Looking over the scene from the upper right hand corner in this mixed media image. In this colour image the sky has been painted with watercolors giving the image a very etherial feeling. The image brought to mind Robert Kennedy's famous Affirmation Day speech in South Africa in 1966. RFK had been warned not to go to South Africa and told that his presence would only cause trouble. He went anyway and gave the most beautiful and powerful speech of his life and one of the most eloquent speeches in history to my mind. I have added a portion of the speech to the original image which is also available without the speech. People like me who long for a leader who is fiercely brave and reaches out to the forgotten and dispossessed as well as the working man and woman and the one percent with a message that we are all in this together will find this image one of your most cherished possessions. It is available in both a signed edition as well as an affordable open edition. The signed originals are printed on fine art rag paper with archival inks, the open edition on your choice of stock. Quote from Robert F. Kennedy's famous "Ripple of Hope" Speech delivered in South Africa in 1966 when South Africa was deep in the throes of Apartheid. In a courageous act, and against all the advice of almost all those who were grooming RFK for the Presidency, he delivered this speech calling people worldwide to the cause of freedom and equality. "It is from numberless diverse acts of courage and belief that human history is shaped. Each time a man stands up for an ideal, or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against injustice, he sends forth a tiny ripple of hope, and crossing each other from a million different centres of energy and daring those ripples build a current which can sweep down the mightiest walls of oppression and resistance."
