You know, whenever I get depressed or sad or stressed out, I watch this again and feel a catharsis and start feeling better about myself and the world.
Tears still come to my eyes whenever I hear "We are one nation, we are one people".
Especially as I read the lead story today, of incidents of egregious racism occurring across the US. I remember that it was only 30 years ago that swastikas were sprayed on our house in the US and only last week that I saw them sprayed here in Berlin: we are a better people than we think, we are the people that we have been waiting for. Now is the tme to stand up for that.
