The late, great cartoonist Jeff MacNelly delivered this speech to the 1980 graduating class at Richmond’s Collegiate School, a private school. The father of one of the students in the audience that day was so impressed by MacNelly’s remarks that he asked him for a copy of the speech, and MacNelly obliged. He kept a copy of the speech, which the student recently chose to share. It’s remarkable how prophetic he was–one could easily imagine a commentator making the same observations today on themes such as freedom and sacrifice.
