@shugoibaka Awesome! Let President Obama know YOU want a special day set aside for Peg Leg Joe, the unsung hero of the Underground Railroad. You can contact the White House here: whitehouse.gov/about/fellows/contact

@MrImakeForyou I'm SO honored your class considered this vid worth watching. Peg Leg Joe's song is a masterpiece: easy to sing & learn. It follows a familiar "call and response" style common then; melodically, it's... well? It's pretty darn catchy. ANY age I sing to? They learn fast, which was the idea. (HAD to.) The genius of Peg Leg Joe? He was good w/ WORDS, too: EVERY line has precise meaning - IF you know "the CODE."

The song is beautiful, but this is terrible.

@TheQurls EVERY opinion counts. The song IS beautiful: it was written by Peg Leg Joe. HE was beautiful, and so was EVERYONE who participated in the Underground Railroad - black & white didn't matter. FREEDOM was beautiful. Including YOUR freedom to think my vid is terrible. :-D Good for you, for having the courage to say so. You have my respect.
