Valley Club Blues

This is an original song about the incident earlier this month when a group of black kids from Philadelphia were thrown out of private swim club in nearby Huntington Valley, PA. Their Day Camp had signed a contract with the swim club and paid for the kids to be able to use it, but the club threw the kids out the first day they were there after several of the club members complained and then cancelled the contract.

Of course the kids should have been allowed to swim there. The purpose of the video and song are to protest that they weren't!

I don't know if you believe that those kids shouldn't have been allowed to swim at that club or not but, the audio, as well as the song itself, is utterly disgusting!

Normally, when someone makes a video with such shitty qualit(y/ies) it typically means that they are making fun of the subject, instead of actually trying to examine the subject objectively, without any preconceived notions or prejudices.

So, what's the deal?? Are you a bigot or not!?
