Luyện nghe bài hát Anne Braden

What Ive realized is
That it is a very painful
But it is not
Its the world

That what really in the '60s
Was that this country just the first step
Toward admittin it had been wrong on race
And creativity burst out in all

From the of the faces in Sunday songs
To the hatred raised all the youngsters on
upon a time in this country, long ago
She knew was somethin wrong

Because the said yellow, red, black, and white
Everyone precious in the path of
But what the daughter of the woman cleanin their house
Wasnt she a they were singin about?

And if Jesus us black and white skin
Why didn't her white mother invite in?
When did it a room for no blacks to step in?
How did she know not to ask the question?

Left impressions
Adolescences comforts
She never thought things ever change
But she knew there was somethin wrong

She always knew there was somethin
She always knew there was wrong

Years she found herself Mississippi bound
To help the legalized lynchin of Mr. Willie McGee
But couldnt stop it, so, they thought
That theyd to the governor about what happened and say
Were tired of bein used as an to kill black men

But the wouldnt let em past
And these women they em as uppity
So, they hauled em all off to
And called it protective custody

Then from her she heard her jailers grumblin about outsiders
When she him out and said she was from the South
They shouted, Why is a Southern lady
Makin for the governor?

She said, I guess I'm not type of lady
And I I'm not your type of Southerner
But you call me traitor, well, its plainest just to say
I was a child in Mississippi but I'm of it today

She always knew there was wrong
She always there was somethin wrong
She always knew there was wrong
She always knew was somethin wrong

And all of a I realized that I was on the other side

Imagine the world that youre within
All of neighbors and family friends
How you cope facin the fact
The flesh on their hands was with sin?

She faced this day
In people she saw on a regular
People she loved in cases
People she were incredibly racist

It was but she never stopped lovin them
Never stopped their names
And she never stopped bein a Southern
And she never fightin for change

And she saw that her struggle was in the
Of ancestors aware of her
It today, the soul of a Southerner
Born of the America

She always knew there was somethin
She always knew there was somethin
She always knew was somethin wrong
She always knew there was wrong

What you win in the immediate is
Is little compared to the you put into it
But if you see that as a
Of this total movement to build a new
You know what you're buildin
you put your stone in

You do have a
You don't have to be a of the world of the lynchers
You can the other America
There is an America
