‘I’m Not Going Anywhere!’ Biden Vows to Remain ‘Engaged’ During Final Speech as President

President Joe Biden vowed to remain “engaged” even after he leaves the White House during his final speech as president on Sunday.

Biden gave his final speech as commander-in-chief on Sunday by  delivering remarks at the Royal Missionary Baptist Church in Charleston, South Carolina. The president gave the speech in order to honor civil rights activist Martin Luther King Jr.

He called on the crowd to “keep the faith” and “stay engaged” for the next few years just as President-elect Donald Trump prepares to take the oath of office.

These decisions are difficult. Some I’ve never been done before, but in my experience. With my conscience. I believe taking together justice and mercy requires as a nation to bear witness and to see people’s pain. Not to look away and do the work, to move pain to purpose, to show we can get a person, a nation. To a day of redemption. We know the struggle for redeeming the soul of this nation is difficult and ongoing. This is assured between peril and possibility. But faith. Faith teaches us the America of our dreams is always closer than we think. That’s the faith we must hold on to. For the Saturdays to come. We must hold on to hope. We must stay engaged. Must always keep the faith. And a better day to come. I’m not going anywhere. I’m not kidding.
