Morley - 'Women of Hope' Dir. Damani Baker

This is a song that I wrote after watching a CNN
program on Women and war. There are three vignettes;
the first is in Rwanda, the second in Mexico, Somalia
and Tibet and the third is in Burma. I quote Aung San
Suu Kyi...when her people asked her for a message,
saying how helpless they feel under military rule, she
responded by saying, "If you're feeling helpless, help
someone". This moved me because it is so brilliant of
her to empower her people like that, I found so much
inspiration and truth in her words that it got me
thinking of all the countless women of hope...

Great song, although i liked the version she sung at T.E.D much much more

It worms my heart to know there is still hope for music, both the melody and lyrics are deep, and her voice is just dreamfull.

too bad she will never prosper with todays kids
