NINA SIMONE- "DON'T LET ME BE MISUNDERSTOOD" (1964)

Wrestling for the soul of America. (See the sequel, "NINA SIMONE -REVOLUTION (1969)" also.) I grew up in the South and Midwest during the civil rights years and their aftermath. It challenged everything about my world and changed my perception of life. Not a single day passes where the lessons learned are not effecting my perceptions, my outlook, or my aspirations. What is right now comes from their paths, what is wrong is from where any of us have lost the way. It's on each of us to make it better for each other. Selflessness brings us into the better angels of our nature. This is my psalm of love to my heroes, the bravest of the brave. The PBS series, EYES ON THE PRIZE, has become available again. To me, it is the single greatest and most relevent thing ever shown on television. Check it out and be heartened by the bittersweet struggle for the very soul of America. Peace. Tym Stevens

Wow!! The civil rights movement. I like this video. Just reminds me that we as black people have only really had rights for about 4 decades. This is the harsh reality about these "great United States". Can't keep us down though, no matter how hard you try. One Love.....................

This is so good, but I also like the version of Eric Burdon. It is a song that can be song by a man and woman I think.

i really dont get why americans hate the middle east, seeing as their massiah is from the middle east? it really does show their ignorace (by the i realise its not all americans, but it is the vast majourity of them)

I agree nefer1234, her voice is unmatched by anyone. That voice is neither feminine nor masculine, but the song is only profound in my belief when it is sung by Nina Simone. It almost becomes a woman's anthem.
