Come on people now~

"You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view... until you climb into his skin and walk around in it."
~ Harper Lee, To Kill a Mockingbird

You will still never fully understand the impact that racism, bigotry or misogyny has had in their lives. We can sympathize or be empathetic, yet unless we have lived it none of us can truly know the pain. However it is the first step to take. We are in this together. With dignity and grace we will go on.

~ Bless their hearts. They are marching in high heels.




Love is but a song to sing
Fear's the way we die
You can make the mountains ring
Or make the angels cry
Though the bird is on the wing
And you may not know why

Come on people now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another
Right now
~ The Youngbloods

Something In The Air

by Thunderclap Newman. From Easy Rider.


Call out the instigators
Because there's something in the air
We've got to get together sooner or later
Because the revolution's here, and you know it's right
And you know that it's right

We have got to get it together
We have got to get it together now

Lock up the streets and houses
Because there's something in the air
We've got to get together sooner or later
Because the revolution's here, and you know it's right
And you know that it's right

We have got to get it together
We have got to get it together now

Hand out the arms and ammo
We're going to blast our way through here
We've got to get together sooner or later
Because the revolution's here, and you know it's right
And you know that it's right

We have got to get it together
We have got to get it together
