9:35Now PlayingUS News: Senator Cory Booker delivered an impassioned speech at a voting rights rally in Montgomery, Alabama, on Saturday, calling on Americans to defend democracy and continue the fight for civil rights ahead of the midterm elections. Speaking on what he called “sacred civic soil,” Booker urged supporters to organize, mobilize, and protect voting rights amid growing battles over redistricting and representation across the South.
Booker said Americans are “our ancestors’ wildest dreams” and warned that freedoms inherited from past generations must be protected through action. “There is no liberation without obligation,” Booker declared, adding, “Now is our generation’s time to prove worthy of the blessings.” He also criticized attacks on voting rights and urged citizens not to treat democracy “like a spectator sport.”
During the rally, Booker argued that “the power of the people is greater than the people in power” and repeated the crowd chant: “When we fight, we win.” He called the moment a “civic altar call” for Americans who still believe in democracy and justice.
