Luyện nghe bài hát Anne Braden

What Ive since is
That it is a very process
But it is not
Its the world

That what really happened in the
Was that this country just the first step
admittin that it had been wrong on race
And burst out in all directions

From the color of the in Sunday songs
To the hatred they raised all the on
Once a time in this country, long ago
She knew there was somethin

Because the song 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 loves us black and white
Why didn't her white mother invite in?
When did it a room for no blacks to step in?
How did she already not to ask the question?

lastin impressions
Adolescences gone
She never thought things would ever
But she always knew was somethin wrong

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

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

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

Then from her cell she heard her jailers grumblin outsiders
When she him out and said she was from the South
shouted, Why is a nice Southern lady
Makin trouble for the

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

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

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

Imagine the world that youre standin
All of your neighbors and friends
How would you cope facin the
The flesh on hands was tainted with sin?

She faced every day
In she saw on a regular basis
People she loved in several
People she knew incredibly racist

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

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

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

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

You do a choice
You don't have to be a part of the world of the
You can join the other
There is an other
