Rolling Stone magazine recently published a list of the 100 best protest songs of all time. Number eight on the list was Pete Seeger’s version of “We Shall Overcome.”
The last month has been demoralizing.
This is not the country I ever expected to live in. As a 20 year Air Force veteran I did not serve to protect our freedoms, only to give them away.
But we have been through worse and we shall overcome.
No executive order can take away the gift of diversity.
We shall overcome.
No ICE officer can take away the power of community.
We shall overcome.
No can erase transgender beauty.
We shall overcome.
Deep in my heart, I do believe. We shall overcome, someday.
