We can do ground work with the children; we must begin with them; but we have got to do a tremendous amount with the older people.

That sentence act as an emotional appeal because indicates that they transferred the hopes from the current generation to the future generation. But in order to do that, the older generation must first make a huge sacrifice to open the path for the future generation.
