Luyện nghe bài hát Anne Braden

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

what really happened in the '60s
Was that this country took just the first
Toward admittin that it had been wrong on
And creativity out in all directions

From the color of the faces in songs
To the hatred they raised all the on
upon a time in this country, long ago
She there was somethin wrong

the song said yellow, red, black, and white
Everyone precious in the of Christ
But what about the daughter of the cleanin their house
Wasnt she a child were singin about?

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Imagine the that youre standin within
All of your neighbors and family
How would you cope facin the
The flesh on their hands was with sin?

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

It was painful but she never lovin them
Never stopped callin names
And she stopped bein a Southern woman
And she never stopped for change

And she saw her struggle was in the tradition
Of ancestors never of her
It continues today, the soul of a
Born of the America

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

What you win in the immediate is
Is little to the effort you put into it
But if you see as a part
Of this total movement to build a new
You know what cathedral buildin
When you put your in

You do a choice
You have to be a part of the world of the lynchers
You can the other America
is an other America
