  1. I noticed in the transcript for part 4 of module 3 for course 306 (African-American History) that you have 'Democratic' capitalized in an excerpt from a speech:
  2.  
  3. "To fulfill that commitment, I pledge that I will not relax until victory is won. I pledge that I will join and support all actions undertaken in good faith in accord with the time-honored Democratic tradition of non-violent protest, of peaceful assembly, and petition, and of redress through the courts and the legislative process."
  4.  
  5. But the speaker was referring to 'democracy' with a lower-case 'd' (i.e the political system), not the 'Democratic party' (which was at this time ineed mostly 'white backlash' candidates). Shouldn't the 'd' be decapitalized?
