Change? "We Shall Overcome" God's truth is marching on



Comment left on the video site:


This song was written in 1965. I graduated June, by November I had lost 11 of my friends who had just graduated. We were old enough to go to war and die for the USA but we were not allowed to vote in the USA until we were 21. The war seemed senseless and Pres. Johnson was playing games with the lives of innocent kids. Barry McGuire said it like it was. If you didn't live during that time, you have NO idea what the feelings were..I am just glad we survived with our emotions still in tact.
