This past weekend, Hillary Clinton spoke at the graduation ceremony of her alma mater, Wellesley College. The speech drew on her own life experiences and referenced aspects of the last US presidential campaign between herself and current US president, Donald Trump. Ultimately, her message to graduates was to believe in the power of their voice despite what contrary forces may prevail.
Watch the video clip below to hear a short segment from the speech.

Hillary Clinton had previously kept a low profile- staying out of the press and away from public engagement- in the months following her loss to President Trump in November 2016. However in recent weeks, she has increased her public appearances and has become increasingly vocal in her critique of President Trump and in her discussion of the circumstances that led to her losing the presidential election.
However, we love her use of her real life experiences from the campaign here as inspiration for the graduating class of Wellesley and likely many more beyond the audience at the commencement ceremony.
