A Song From Then for Now
by Miki SaxonThe Superman panel KG sent yesterday reminded me of something I always wanted to see happen.
There is a song written in 1949 by Rodgers and Hammerstein for the musical South Pacific.
The song is You’ve Got To Be Carefully Taught.
I’d love to see it done as rap, preferably by someone like LL Cool J, who has such a positive, good guy, persona.
And another version by Willie Nelson.
How ‘bout versions by Kacey Musgraves and Taylor Swift.
I could keep going, but you get the idea.
It’s a song that needs to go viral all over social media to all audiences.
A song to help fight the hate and bigotry that’s invading all spaces and nobody is safe from.
It’s this song.
