[outerspaceoutpost]

LET FREEDOM CONTINUE TO RING!! By the grace of God, who is more powerful than any man made government, may nobody turn us around! Love the video & song. May God bless his children who he set free. Walk by faith & not by sight & we will be free indeed. We can't give up & give in to hate. We got to fight for what's right & for the change we seek. God bless. 

[firehorsedude]

God Bless these brothers an sisters for their hard fought struggle of the 1960's . May God Bless all his PEOPLE of CHANGE.

Here's a thought.....get your DNA tested. You'd be surprised how many whites in our country actually have African DNA. If you don't believe me, check it out.

[fumanxxx]

@Johnson1937 All of us are descendants of Africans. All of humanity. Even the mythological Jesus character.

Thank God we've moved past that absolute ignorance.

That Nazi imbecile can't even operate a keyboard. Nazis were national socialists. and it's the Aryan philosophy of the mystery schools that is to blame for the destruction of all sovereign countries, nations, and states.

Hitler was reared in the Thule Society. A cult, and this is where he got his idea, he didn't invent anything, and everything he has said was said before all throughout history.

you brainwashed, ignorant simpleton.

[oooweee5]

I"m a 3rd grade teaching trying to buy The Roots' version of Can't Turn Me Around. They sang it on the Soundtrack for a Revolution DVD but I can't find it on a CD or online. My 3rd graders are singing it for our African American History program and I prefer The Roots' version. Any help would be appreciated! :)

[tomiboy217]

I worked on this movie very closely with the directors of this film and I loved every minute. Dan Sturman and Bill Guttentag are the coolest guys in the world.

this video is the March 7, 1965 Selma to Montgomery March... in Alabama

[longfootbuddy]

you know what civil rights are? they are whatever the goverment decides you, as citizens, can have....is that really what you want? or do you want to fight to defend the human rights you are being denied, by this goverment that has no authority to deny? do you all want to beg goverment masters what civil rights youre allowed to have like slaves forever, or stand up and defend the rights god gives you? do you actually think being subjects to goverment is freedom?

[ECU7]

@longfootbuddy Do you want anarchy? There has to be order within society for it to progress, many people as individuals lack the quality of being productive.

[longfootbuddy]

@ECU7 im not really an anarchist, because i value having basic law in the land that helps maintain our liberty and peace, but im totally against having goverments ruling over us, as they do now.. im all about individual freedom, not goverments forcing us to hand our wealth over to those that dont wish to provide for themselves.. and of course i despise the absurd laws this goverment enforces, that equates to tyranny and slavery

[ECU7]

@longfootbuddy Basically a government with little control over its people and that allows a lot of individual freedom? Hmm borderline anarchy lol but eh maybe it is possible.

[longfootbuddy]

@ECU7 personally, i dont need or want any goverment.. but its unrealistic to expect people to go along with that at this point in time.. what i would prefer is that goverments become more local and stop forcing all of us to participate with its absurd rule.. id like to have the option to be totally free from them, but if people want to subject themselves to them, they should be able to.. i just wish theyd stop forcing the rest of us under their rule.. people like us are decent people

[longfootbuddy]

@ECU7 i and my neighbors could live peacefully and well without goverment lords ruling over us and treating us like its property..

[Patriot3pcter]

@longfootbuddy you are exactly right, we have right that cant be denied because we are living breathing entities

[whiteboiwasted111]

[thagod88]

@whiteboiwasted111 U search out videos like this because U have a pathetic, cowardly life. U truly got your name right. I'm glad others have the sense 2 play nice with U but if that's how U truly feel bring that BS to my face! U got a problem handle your business, fix it, punk. U and everybody like U! Computer keyboard cowards!

[TheDaleDenton]

@whiteboiwasted111 IN which part of the bible does God say that the whites are the ultimate race? And Jesus was from Bethlehem which is in the middle east making him look like what most call terrorists today.

[rutledri]

Not a bad arrangement. I played guitar for the Carlton Reese Choir in Birmingham for a while. This is one of the Reese songs.
