Candi Staton You've Made Me So Very Happy (1970)

What would America do without it's former slaves? If we did not exist, this could not be (formerly) the greatest country (in popular culture) on the planet.

@knowledgeiswhatsup The black slaves were in good company. Many european whites earned their passage as endentured servents also and the term slave was not reserved just for blacks. But I wont make light of what actually occurred I am well aware of what happened. But I wonder sometimes if it was really slavery, or the 100 plus years of struggeling to be treated, accepted as equalls that has hurt them more as a culture. Candi staton rules, love her version of "he called me Baby"
