Wat year they did this performance?

[Geepereet]

Sorry for the missing info, it was 1990 on a 'Voices' festival in Maastricht the Netherlands.

It's damn near impossible for me to hear Sweet Honey without being moved to tears.

"Until the killing of black men, black mothers sons, becomes as important to the rest of the country as the killing of a white mothers son." Is so relevant ESPECIALLY NOW with Trayvon! We who believe in freedom cannot and WILL NOT REST!

i know this group because i grew up with it. i think that the black community as a whole has not been exposed to this because the music industry can't exploit it enough to want to promote it. so it is up to individual households to take control of influence.unfortunately by the time the daughter of the lead singer in this song got older, there became a racial divide in the women's community as well which was heart breaking for me. these women practically raised me thru their music.

when they play in the United States or any place where black people live there are black people in the audience. but this was a european tour in a country where not many black folks live

[Yoann Freget]

This is absolutely DIVINE !!!!!!

[TheGreatDarkOne]

This is late sorry. The video uploader wrote in a comment that this performance was in the Netherlands. Not a lot of black people there XD

[syanna randolph]

when did she even die?

[soul2178]

Am I the only one who noticed that the audience appears to be all-white?? What do you guys think is the cause of that? Seriously, I'm just wondering if black people are that removed from this kind of spiritual uplifting music. If so, its sad! The music that soooo reflects their culture and history. What are your thoughts?
