This speech was actually given the day of the signing of the Pledge of Mutual Respect and Cooperation (AKA the Sunni Unity Pledge). The session was the perfect bridge builder to set up the signing of the pledge that took place late that night during ISNA 2007. The hall was packed with all sorts of listeners, particulary those all "sides" involved, and the result was a great event of unity for the convention and for Muslims in America since.
