Like Song Birds On The Wing


Guy Carawan
Rest In Peace

"Heed the call, Americans all, side by equal side.
Sisters, sit in dignity, brothers sit in pride."

Among many other things, Carawan founded the Highlander Research And Education Center, marched with Martin Luther King Jr. through the streets of Selma, and is responsible for introducing "We Shall Overcome" to the Civil Rights movement back in 1960.
