'Wrestling for the soul of America.'
I grew up in the South and Midwest during the civil rights years and their aftermath. It challenged everything about my world and changed my perception of life. Not a single day passes where the lessons learned are not effecting my perceptions, my outlook, or my aspirations. What is right now comes from their paths, what is wrong is from where any of us have lost the way. It's on each of us to make it better for each other. Selflessness brings us into the better angels of our nature. This is my psalm of love to my heroes, the bravest of the brave.
The PBS series, EYES ON THE PRIZE, has become available again. To me, it is the single greatest and most relevent thing ever shown on television. Check it out and be heartened by the bittersweet struggle for the very soul of America.
Peace.

Beyoncé Knowles sings Etta James' version of "I'd Rather Go Blind" for the Cadillac Records Soundtrack.
Something told me it was over (Yeah)
When I saw you and her talking
Something deep down in my soul said "cry girl" (Cry, Cry)
When I saw you and that girl walking around
Ohhh, I would rather, I would rather go blind boy
Than to see you walk away from me chile
Ooooo, So you see I love you So much
That I don't want to watch you leave me baby
Most of all I just don't, I just don't want to be free no
Ooooo, Oooo I was just
I was just
I was just sitting here thinkin'
Of your kiss and your warm embrace, Yeah
When a reflection in a glass that I held to my lips now, baby
Revealed these tears that are on my face
ooowooo, and baby, and baby, baby
I'd rather be blind boy
Than to see you walk away, walk away from me, yeah
and baby, baby, baby
I'd rather be blind boy
Than to see you walk away, walk away from me

Summertime and the livin is easy
Fish are jumpin and the cotton is high
Oh your daddys rich and your ma is good lookin
So hush little baby, dont you cry
One of these mornings
Youre goin to rise up singing
Then youll spread your wings
And youll take the sky
But till that morning
Theres a nothin can harm you
With daddy and mammy standin by
