They are old enough to have lived through watching the events play out on the nightly news.Nexgrlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01385497972650466165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22863431.post-1160279258958587392006-10-07T20:47:00.000-07:002006-10-07T20:47:00.000-07:00yea we sung it too. i think i still know most of t...yea we sung it too. i think i still know most of the words but the reality is that we were closer to the civil rights movement then...these days our history seems more like old news!A.u.n.t.

The men are aged 50-64.<BR/><BR/>I don't know what they were doing during the Civil Rights Movement.Nexgrlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01385497972650466165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22863431.post-1159532998627358832006-09-29T05:29:00.000-07:002006-09-29T05:29:00.000-07:00I 'think' you're in SF or somewhere else in the Ba...I 'think' you're in SF or somewhere else in the Bay Area but still.... <BR/><BR/>I'm from Oakland, went to predominately White schools and always read, sung, talked about Lift Every Voice during Black History Month.
