Writen by Stevie for Spike Lee's powerful, enlightening "Bamboozled,"(2000)perhaps Spike's greatest work. Stevie's harmony is haunting as his beautifully sung melody digs into the soul, the mind; finding sorrow, pain, suffering, yet knowing hope. This is one of Stevie's greatest works; in meaning, composition, performance, and passion.
This is the history of Africans in America. The slideshow is made from painful images; slavery, lynchings, damaging stereotypes, as well as images of hope from the past. Today we must deal with the pain of slavery, and its still deep wounds in our hearts. We must deal with the racism of the last 150 years and the racism of today. Knowledge of our history will make us strong. We must educate our children ourselves with the truth.
"Bamboozled" is a recommended film for all.
"Some Years Ago" Stevie Wonder, 2000

Racism Exists because we allow the words and treatment of people of different races, ages, sexes, beliefs, and birthplace as an excuse to MISTREAT another human being and fear each others differences. Without an understanding of ALL HUMANS regardless of your stand point, we will always have to be kept under the Noose of Racism.

I agree....Thanks for posting....If we (AMERICANS) don't know our history we are all doomed to repeat it...Check out today's news reports, someone just pushed the rewind button and it sounds more like 1910 than 2010.

You know this song is Deep, you know this song is Tight, you know this song is a life lived, and millions lost, and you know that so many are still lost today and this song, Video, and the history it conveys all the way, shows and we all know this even the ones that throw in their racist remarks.
And it leaves one with that same old question and phrase.,
Will We Ever Learn!!!!

Keeping racist remarks to yourself isn't cowardly. Waiting till you get home, finding vids on youtube and TYPING racist shit is. If you dont say it in real life don't do it behind your username. Say this shit when you get to work, school or wherever you go.... You can't, Can U? No, Stop the racist cawardly comments
