50 Years Later

In the latest installment of our audio series Being Biden, the Vice President reflects on the 50th anniversary of the Civil Rights Act, and shares a photo of himself with Representative John Lewis, Jesse Jackson, and other leaders of the civil rights movement.

Vice President Biden reminds us that, as we celebrate the Fourth of July, we must also celebrate and remember the struggles of a generation that pushed to make the Declaration of Independence's inalienable rights -- of "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness" -- a reality for all Americans.

Take a listen to the latest episode, "50 Years Later."

Listen to the latest edition of Being Biden.
