"If you cannot fly, then run. If you cannot run, then walk. If you cannot walk, then crawl. But whatever you do, you have to keep moving forward." - Martin Luther King Jr.

George Floyd and any other innocent black women or man including any other racial group or ethnicity that has been terrorized by this country... and still doesn’t have justice!
Today in my social studies class we watched this video and I started crying.. this is such a powerful song and it’s all true thank you John for this song we love you ❤️
RIP....Having March for our rights for equality MLK in B'HAM, as i stood behind the yellow line and watched the 4 little girls in the ashes of 16th Baptist Church...I know GLORY will come. Stay strong my people...you stand on mighty people shoulders. Glory! Will Come! Cc
Dillon Murray you do realize what black lives matter means, right? We’re protesting for the end of police brutality, for the end of systemic racism against people of color, and for the justice for those who have been killed because of police brutality.
I'm so glad we have diffrent people in our world if we were all the same race this workd would have been boring but with diffrent people it makes us all unique!!! God bless us ALL
I'm not black, but; I hear you, I cry with you, I walk with you, I stand with you. ✊🏼 I'm not black but this is now my fight too. Untied we stand, together we fall.
Racism is just plain stupid! They look different they say... so what! We all are humans, we have feelings, the physical doesn't matter. I am white, but I will fight too against racism, we are all brothers, we are all human, we all have rights, we all have feelings. We all should have what we deserve just for the fact of being human beings! EQUALITY! STOP RACISM!
I'm glad you said humanity. I believe that no life matters until All life matters. There is only one race, human. And like other species, God likes variety. The Pine, Redwood, Eucalyptus = Tree's. Poodle, Shepherd, Labradors = dogs. Colors, shapes & sizes = beautiful tapestry called Human Race. To differentiate ourselves by pigmentation we hand the devil his only real weapon.... Division. I don't want to be conquered or fighting over Ism"s be what unites humanity. Praying "us" & "them' become "we". We got to be able to handle the truth, start in the mirror, love having everything to do with it. Otherwise we'll never get along, just insist on fulfilling The Book.
I am a Filipino and everytime I hear this song, I cry a river. This song is BEAUTIFULLY POWERFUL. Your skin maybe black, but I salute you, you are one of the most courageous members of mankind. May racism absolutely end.
Every time I feel like giving up I remember that all of these amazing people fought and died for me and others just for us to have rights and do what we love they made a bunch history! ❤️❤️❤️
RIP George Floyd RIP Ahmaud Arbery RIP Breonna Taylor RIP Freddie Gray RIP Michael Brown RIP Trayvon Martin RIP Atatiana Jefferson RIP Rashan Charles RIP Antwan Rose We ain't forget you
I’m a blonde green eyes italian man and I live in Italy, a Country where 99% of citizens are white. I can feel your pain guys, my black brothers. I am with You.
Ezio Auditore What the fuck man? You're a piece of shit. Your garbage hatred and racism isn't needed anywhere. I can only assume you are 12 years old, trying to be tough, but really no matter where you are, how old you are, there is no excuse to be racially ignorant. Fucking trash.
Ezio Auditore You disgust me. It is people like you that are the reason white's have such a bad name. How can you sit there and slander an entire race of human beings based upon the colour of their skin? You should be the one in jail and not the thousands of innocent black men who did nothing except for BEING BORN BLACK.
And those who fought for freedom I' m happy to say that I was one of the ones that fought for our rights growing up in Mississippi where we were segregated so I understand every lyric of this song and it touches my heart glory 🙏🙏

Thank you, my white brother, for your helping hand. Let us Unity the fire to fight for our brothers and sister from every race and our black brothers and sisters. We thank we shall fight together.
L Louii I just don’t get the point of it, not just the United States but the whole world. If we all shook each others hands one day in honorable alliance and strength we could see this populations plunge into the future doing things never thought possible. Best of luck to you crusader
The only time my friend will tell what will happen probably after all the deaths and people actually seeing the problem behind this. Only then will we seek a better future for our children, children generation. We can only pray for the better for ourselves and our people. That things will change.😞
This is one of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard. As another commenter said, it is SO powerful!! I had never heard it until about a week ago, now I've seen Selma (awesome movie!!), and I just can't get enough of this song - Common is awesome, and John Legend is incredible. What a beautiful collaboration from these 2 wonderful performers. You have to see the movie this was written for, unless you're old enough to have lived through it, which, unfortunately, I was not. I wasn't born until 1969, but I damn well for sure would have walked across that bridge with everyone else if I could have. Bunch of racist hicks. I've been told not much has changed in Alabama which is discouraging, but maybe they'll finally see the light.
I live in alabama. We arent racist as a society. Its individual people that still remember those times and wish those times still existed. I don't believe in racism, and that all people are created equal, but it isn't fair that our state is seen as one of the most racist.
@@brockwalker6629 I've never actually been to Alabama. I was basing what I said off of what an elderly black woman who is from Alabama said to me. She remembers before and after. I didn't mean to insult the whole state of Alabama. I was just pretty worked up from seeing the movie. I shouldn't have singled out an entire state. Obviously, not everyone is racist in Alabama and I know that, but on the other hand, just from what I've been told, if I were black, the South would be one of the last places I'd want to live. Just keeping it real there! lol
Just looking through this..It hurts...so so badly..! I have one question? We pray all this time for it to end however..God still hasn’t stopped it?! Why? “Wait and it’ll get better!” Isn’t an excuse. We’ve waited for millions of years. No justice. No Empathy. For those who simply did nothing to deserve all the gun shots..or all the pain..Not even to die when they ain’t in pain. Now tell me, why? Why are we the only ones who are standing, however we haven’t seen any signs that god is also acting? People at my church say “Gods letting satan their time.” “Satan will be locked up for 1,000 years and then let our again.” Tell me I’d 1,000 years anything near countless years?! Huh? Didn’t think so. And if god really cared (not saying he don’t) Would he let satan back out after all this time? Will we have to go through an endless loop of pain?! Someone please explain this to me.. I’m only 10 years old, and even I see this as utter bullying! Actually, abuse. #BlackLivesMatter Have a beautiful night/ day.. Stay safe, wear a mask.. (I cried typing this..ima go cry in the bathroom for the rest of the night.)
Thanks🙏🏾 for your love and support you showed on me, it's been a wonderful years having fans like solidly behind me, this is my way of saying thank you to the people who brought me this far.

I haven't watched the film yet but I'm already in tears. I heard stories from my dad saying that he was forbidden to step his foot in places because the color of his skin. He's got so many deep and hidden scars and most of them is because he was told he was not good enough, that his color would stop him from achieving greatness. MLK fought this fight as christians should do and it's not over. He's an example of how Jesus taught us to live and fight and his blood was not shed in vain. The Glory belongs to the Lord and one day all the pain, suffering and struggle will be over and every person will bow to Jesus. And that same glory will be his for the eternity.
Amen to that! I saw this movie opening weekend (On Martin Luther King Day) and it was such a hit, everyone in the theater started clapping during the end credits! It was a really inspirational film that really gave Dr. King his justice. It also makes me honor all those who went through those difficult times (including your father). I hope you'll get the chance to see it soon and have a great day.
You're 18 which at the very least (these days) your father would be in his 30s (born in the 80s) which by no means has he felt the divide between white and black like in the 50s. "I heard stories from my dad saying that he was forbidden to step his foot in places because the color of his skin", blatant lies and ignorance from the youth. Sounds like your dad took a story from Rosa Parks sitting in the back of the bus which is a disgrace for her, and those who truly fought. The other ignorant comments who, "amen" are just as retarded as your lie as they fail in basic math and history. Something that is so important in our culture, let alone the African American community has simply become a conversational piece that revolves around dumb asses like you and those who want to add their simple 2 cent gratification. Such a shame as you take advantage boasting about a part of history that is so important to make you feel relevant.
This song rips through my heart. I LOVE the lyrics more than I can express. Thanks John for being able to speak in song, what some people cannot express, and so vividly.
Everytime I listen to this song u get goosebumps, I may not be black, but everyone deserves to be treated as a human, not as color. It's time for the new revolution.

@@yameii3065 keep faith 🤍 jesus has his plan, in his plan he wants us to go down in history✊🏾 he loves us and he will keep us safe, stay prayed up✨ that’s the only way we survive✊🏾 i love you my sister/brother🤍
@@yameii3065 it's because God isn't real. He is just a symbol that people believe in because they cant carry their own weight of on their shoulders. God was never real. What was real was the belief that a spirit can make everything better for the believers, and the fact that the belief is the reason people crumble when their spirit won't help them, or they feel that their spirit betrayed them. If you feel that God doesn't help you, then you don't believe in god. You believe in yourself, and your ability to move forward, past the preaching of a bible that was man made to give false rules about the universe, past the belief that one spirit will save us all, and past the believers who refuse to carry their own weight because of a belief that their spirit is above all, and will save them from their trouble or struggle. That's my two cents about it. I don't give a shit if your religious or not, but when you use your religion to make excuses about problems in your life, then you aren't religious.
Stand tall brothers and sisters, black, white, asian, hispanic. We must be united in these times, we must work towards understanding each other and move past our differences, together. God bless the world. ''Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that'' - MLK.
In the midst of today's Middle East war, this prayer rings out again. The prayer for peace for all of humanity is what we need. Thank you for this beautiful prayer for peace and energy and desire to stand up for what is right. Amen.
It’s so crazy how little things have changed. It’s 2022 not 1822 and we’re still as black and brown ppl are still fighting for the right to live free without fear.
Saw the movie. It was awesome. It shows how black people were treated and the struggle for freedom. This song is fantastic. The ethnicity of blacks are strong because we fought for freedom, end to slavery, beginning of integration, etc. Right now, we are reliving the past again with white cops killing black men like Trayvon Martin, Mike Brown, Tamar Rice, and Eric Garner. We all need to stand together and fight together. We are fighting each other when we are all in the human race. We will continue to fight till all rights fulfilled. We are not each other's enemies. We are a unity. We are killing each other. We all need to stand together. African American people are strong and can do anything the white man can do. Look at Barack Obama, Gabby Douglas, MLK! We all need to congratulate each other. Lets be one!
I remember watching Selma in school It was inspiring to me. I saw the Greek Orthodox Archbishop and felt real happiness seeing somebody of my religion stud up and supported one of the most important movements till this date.
"I am the hopeful black woman who was denied her right to vote. I am the caring white supporter killed on the frontline of freedom. I am the unarmed black kid who maybe needed a hand but was instead given a bullet. I am the two fallen police officers slain in the line of duty. Selma has awakened my humanity. Selma is now." -Common (said at the Golden Globes 2015)

I've been depressed for a long time, I seem useless and bad This music has helped me relieve fatigue and stress. Thanks for sharing it The person who is reading this comment , i wish you great success , health, love
Conheci hoje essa música, depois que a Lysa Ngaca cantou no The Voice Brasil... que coisa linda!! A interpretação da Lysa foi mais explosiva do que a do John Legend!! Se a Globo não roubar, a girl from Angola vai ser campeã do The Voice!!!
This is absolutely the most moving song I have seen in years it's been a long time coming God bless you all this is giving me the chills I am a Caucasian woman who has never in her entire life at 76 years old been racist and when I die I will be exactly that same person I salute each and every one of you for your bravery for your love for your fight for equality
I agree with you .. you have a gift .... it is not quantifiable the pain brought by the whites to the black community .. the excuses are not enough ... I wish my apologies could be an example because I feel like white too responsible .... my apologies are nothing but take it as a small start ... respect forever ..
i heard this song today the day before mlk's bday know 99.999 will not read this but HAPPY BDAY MARTIN LUTHER KING.. RIP THANK YOU FOR ALL THE LIKES PEOPLE
The Struggle The Sweat, The HATE,The Unity The Hardships The Black Women And Men Went ThrewThe Heartaches Just To Be Loved And FREE! Is So Heartless For A Human Being And Still The HATE is Still ALIVE!!!!!!! Much ❤️!!!

Risking their life’s for change 😢 it’s so sad daughters and sons losing fathers and mothers. Mothers and fathers losing their kids . Friends losing friends just to get a change pathetic because of a skin color
You must not listen to much music if you think "it's been a while" since there has been good music. There is a ton of it out there. No excuse to not know that.
+kk lam why should I it's my opinion. As great as he could have been had he not cheated on his wife. I personally don't think any man or women should cheat on their spouse. That's hat I believe just how everyone believes there's no such thing as equal rights
