[Assam] Her Majesty: The first Queen's speech broadcast on Christmas day in 1957

[umesh sharma]

Rini-ji,

Thank you for this link. I had searched for it on youtube earlier but could not find it. Ofcourse, many would say that what an anachronism - having a queen speak on Christmas day in a secular democratic nation but  she spoke very well. Perhaps she realized more than all of us what a strange situation she and her family are in and thus her speech  showed her  helplessness  (to some extent)  at  being  ambassador of her people yet not a leader  in the political and   government sense.

There is no equality anywhere - if we look at it. We only strive towards it.

Merry Christmas, Happy Hannukah, Happy Kwanzaa and Happy New Year.
