Abraham, Martin and John, Moms Mabley, April 20, 1970 on Pl 

You can hear the pain in her voice especially when she says have anybody here seen my Lil Bobby i just break down in tears when sings that part 😢😢

Moms Mabley, Woopi, and Sammy Davis Jr. How I would just love to hug them all. And, I think this is one of the greatest songs ever.

This is what we call a ballot I remember this one of Mom's from a long long time ago and she did it justice.

This performance was cathartic and powerful and it resonates deeply. She literally captured a moment of innocence and pain of a nation.

So beautiful and sad. Moms was the best.

My mom so loved Moms; I still have 5 of her albums from the early 60s that get played at least once a year.

absolutely beautiful

Greatness rip mom's mabley ❤❤❤❤❤🤗🙇‍♀️👑

Wow. Just beautiful!

Wow what a beautiful song BRINGS TEARS to your eyes

Don't forget about Ray Charles version. It was the first time as a young man when I heard this song. I still love his version!

I saw Whoopi coverage of Mom Mabley and that was the first I'd heard of her. Thanks.

so much passion love and struggle but some day will all be free !

43 years later.. my Son was born

Grande melodia, pena que hoje temos que nos contentar com essas porcarias que chamam de música.

😭💙🤣🥇💯🌟

I have heard so many versions of this great songs and a few of them don't sound great, they sound very awkward. The best ive heard were Whitney hustons, (& I have never been a fan of hers), Harry Belafontes and best of all - moms -(despite its success I always thought Dions version, & I liked some of his stuff, was truly awful - Moms version was head and shoulders above any other. I guess the fact that the song relates to her entire life, her career etc helps make it so powerful -& the fact she knew dr King well and that she had met Kennedy reinforces how very personal it is. This being America 3 of the alleged "greats" of civil rights are white men. In America even the black mans struggle for civil rights is dominated by white men. This didn't seem to bother Moms she really seemed to love everyone. Growing up there were a couple of female comedians we were always kind of told were the trailblazers of female comedy, I never heard this great lady's name mentioned at the time. It's unfuckingbelievable that, despite a black president, true equality still does not exist in America. Truly shameful.

sorry none of them freed us cause we ain't free
