Please help this is due today! How does the passage connect to the theme “taking a stand”? Explain your answer.

Your imagination and your energy and your anger will determine whether we build a society where progress is the giver of our needs or a society where old values and new visions are buried undergrowth. For in your time we have the opportunity to move not only toward the rich society and the powerful society, but upward to the Great Society. The Great Society rests on quantity and liberty for all. It demands an end to poverty and racial injustice, to which we are totally committed in our time. But that is just the beginning. So I want to talk to you today about three places where we begin to build the Great Society—in our cities, in our countryside, and in our classrooms. And our society will never be great until our cities are great. Today, imagination and transformation are found inside those cities. New experiments are already going on. It will be the task of your generation to make the American city a place where future generations will come, not only to live, but to live the good life. One place where we begin to build the Great Society is in our countryside. We have always prided ourselves on being not only America the strong and America the free, but America the beautiful. Today that beauty is in danger. The water we drink, the food we eat, the very air that we breathe, are threatened with pollution. Another place to build the Great Society is in the classrooms of America. There your children’s lives will be shaped. Our society will not be great until every young mind is set free to scan the farthest reaches of thought and imagination. We are still far from that goal.
