A remarkable video of a Cambridge debate between two undergraduates, James Baldwin, and William F Buckley, Jr. The undergraduate's elocution is undeniable, and WFB Jrs use of words as a rapier unmatched, but it's most notable for James Baldwin's beautiful, moving speech. It's a fascinating hour of television, and I recommend the whole thing, but at least be sure to watch Baldwin.
For those who want to cherry pick:
First undergraduate: 3:15 of Part 1 to 8:08 Part 1
Second undergraduate: 8:29 of Part 1 to 3:47 of Part 2
James Baldwin: 4:15 of Part 2 to 8:05 of Part 4
WFB: 9:35 of Part 4 to 7:57 of Part 6
Part 1
Part 2
Part 3
Part 4
Part 5
Part 6
