And we developed a deep lifetime friendship.

I was with Mr. McCune the day before he died.

He was a white man.

And I've had other teachers who've, some of whom have become colleagues of mine.

You know, Sanford Levinson.

Sanford Levinson was a teacher of mine at Princeton.

He's become a colleague of mine.

I mean, it would be, frankly, it would be impossible for me to, you know, I hear, I can't make some sort of

you know, sort of blanket condemnation of white people with Sandy Levinson in my life.

I mean, seriously.

John Epicune in my life, with Eric Foner in my life, with my colleague Martha Minow in my life, my colleague Cass Sunstein in my life.

Impossible.

Oh, yeah.

Well, I've taken that to heart.

I hope, listen, I would be absolutely overjoyed if there was a student who thought of me in the way that I think of Gentleman Jack McCune.

If that's the case, just one, just one.

If that's the case, I'm overjoyed.

I think that Martin Luther King Jr.

's I Have a Dream speech is one of the great speeches, not only in American history, but in the history of the world.

You know, there's a tendency now for people to sort of poo-poo that speech.
