I hope one day that people of color, non-Christian faith, non-straight orientation, female and other gender will be recognized as human beings as much as anyone else is.
Moving, 'I Know Where I've Been.' Such a beautiful song...the lyrics...Oh my gosh! Written years ago and befitting 2 day, at this very time in history! What would we witness if we all took the time 2 lift each other up! Namaste
I've was at a protest summer of 2020 and I heard this during the speeches and I immediately reacted, I knew the song and love it so much 🥰 its just unfortunate that reality is so much more bleak than the movie. However ill never forget the feelings as a 7th grader seeing this movie for the first time and the impact. Dude this is forever my favorite musical!!! So deserving 👏
I listened to this in HS a lot when I was bullied and felt alone. I know it's intended for skin color and racism and I completely agree but I'll get chills always because it helped me through the hardest times in my life and I'm glad it helps others as well.
That’s a terrorist organisation. Look at how they destroy black owned bussinesses and riot costing lives and money of the tax payers. Shame on you for supporting them! Wake up and start thinking!
Stop defending criminals! He had done some really horrific crimes. Check your morals and stop being told by the media what to think. He wasnt innocent. Start using your brain and shame on you. One less criminal on our streets. Would you have liked to be his next victim? You’re so stupid.
This song is special to me during these times every time i lisen it has me think about my life how thankful and lucky i am and others are not its just my favoeite song in the world
Dunno why I'm inclined to post, but this song makes me feel so emotional. I lived with severe depression for a decade, from a young teen to my early twenties. I remember entire months where I felt like a fog sat over my mind. My body felt heavy like every step was weighted with bricks. No social life, my family was at a loss and told me I was lazy, but I knew they wanted to help. They offered but I just wasn't in a headspace to take it. I remember a moment where I looked up from my bed and realized I hadn't left it in two days, and it was either me or my depression. I felt a sudden need to live. I crawled myself to therapy, I stood up and told doctors who didn't believe me that I needed help and change. I went through multiple drug trials, pills that made me tired, angry, anxious, paranoid and pessimistic for a better outcome. Then one day they configured my meds rights and it was like waking up from a nightmare. Like I woke up as the person who I was supposed to grow into before depression took over my life. Now life is good. It could be better, but I took up dancing and work with little kids who tell me they love me and families that trust me to take care of them. I wish I could go back in time and sing this to my 13-year-old self, who just discovered hairspray and binged this soundtrack on repeat. I know where I'm going, but lord knows, I know where I've been.
Un mundo para todos. Construído por aquellos tiempos de locura y maltrato, gracias a todos los que forman parte de construir con sus dolor mejores horizontes.
