    “I go to prepare a place for you.” Believed to be the last words of Harriet Tubman before she died. Beautiful.

      @@nymiuralee6586 There was colonial rule in Nigeria up until 1960 when we got our independence. Even now there is still an element of modern slavery going on in the corporate world, the brains of a lot of Nigerians is whitewashed thinking anything/anyone foreign is better. There is still a lot of healing to be done.

    STAND UP - LYRICS
    I been walkin'
    With my face turned to the sun
    Weight on my shoulders
    A bullet in my gun
    Oh, I got eyes in the back of my head
    Just in case I have to run
    I do what I can when I can while I can for my people
    While the clouds roll back and the stars fill the night
    That's when I'm gonna stand up
    Take my people with me
    Together we are going
    To a brand new home
    Far across the river
    Can you hear freedom calling?
    Calling me to answer
    Gonna keep on keepin' on
    I can feel it in my bones
    Early in the mornin'
    Before the sun begins to shine
    We're gonna start movin'
    Towards that separating line
    I'm wadin' through muddy waters
    You know I got a made up mind
    And I don't mind if I lose any blood on the way to salvation
    And I'll fight with the strength that I got until I die
    So I'm gonna stand up
    Take my people with me
    Together we are going
    To a brand new home
    Far across the river
    Can you hear freedom calling?
    Calling me to answer
    Gonna keep on keepin' on
    And I know what's around the bend
    Might be hard to face 'cause I'm alone
    And I just might fail
    But Lord knows I tried
    Sure as stars fill up the sky
    Stand up
    Take my people with me
    Together we are going
    To a brand new home
    Far across the river
    Can you hear freedom calling?
    Calling me to answer
    Gonna keep on keepin' on
    I can feel it in my bones
    I go to prepare a place for you
    I go to prepare a place for you
    I go to prepare a place for you
    I go to prepare a place for you

      1. Not every other opinion about homosexuality or homosexuals is immediately homophobic. Hope you know that.
      2. We Catholics love homosexuals and believe that it is better for them to live without sexual contacts and out of relationship (without compulsion for them; we only say what we believe), because we believe that God established unions to strive for marriage, and that marriage was established for a man and a woman.
      3. All the best for you.

    As a young black girl, with short 4C hair, and lovely african features, hearing a critically acclaimed Nigerian actress and singer on her way to becoming an EGOT literally saying she's going to " stand up take my people with me" (me being her people) is amazing. I know this is for the movie but the song reaches different depths. She, literally being one of the few black woman I see who resemble my life and my features, saying she's paving the way for girls like me to follow along is honestly... transcendent. Love you miss Erivo💖💖💖

They just released a white man who had spent 12 years in prison for murder. A man in prison confessed to the murder. They interviewed the falsely accused man and he said what the police did not have as evidence they manufactured, and that the arresting officer just got on the witness stand and lied. They gave him some money for 12 years of freedom he lost. But if this happened to a causcian image what is happening to minority people.

The Governor of texas Greg Abbott won't extend the date of his execution for a new trial. The ex-fiance admitted killing the woman then retracted his admission. This wicked Gov.

    been walkin'
    With my face turned to the sun
    Weight on my shoulders
    A bullet in my gun
    Oh, I got eyes in the back of my head
    Just in case I have to run
    I do what I can when I can while I can for my people
    While the clouds roll back and the stars fill the night
    That's when I'm gonna stand up
    Take my people with me
    Together we are going
    To a brand new home
    Far across the river
    Can you hear freedom calling?
    Calling me to answer
    Gonna keep on keepin' on
    I can feel it in my bones
    Early in the mornin'
    Before the sun begins to shine
    We're gonna start movin'
    Towards that separating line
    I'm wadin' through muddy waters
    You know I got a made up mind
    And I don't mind if I lose any blood on the way to salvation
    And I'll fight with the strength that I got until I die
    So I'm gonna stand up
    Take my people with me
    Together we are going
    To a brand new home
    Far across the river
    Can you hear freedom calling?
    Calling me to answer
    Gonna keep on keepin' on
    And I know what's around the bend
    Might be hard to face 'cause I'm alone
    And I just might fail
    But Lord knows I tried
    Sure as stars fill up the sky
    Stand up
    Take my people with me
    Together we are going
    To a brand new home
    Far across the river
    Can you hear freedom calling?
    Calling me to answer
    Gonna keep on keepin' on
    I'm gonna stand up
    Take my people with me
    Together we are going
    To a brand new home
    Far across the river
    Do you hear freedom calling?
    Calling me to answer
    Gonna keep on keepin' on
    I'm gonna stand up
    Take my people with me
    Together we are going
    To a brand new home
    Far across the river
    I hear freedom calling
    Calling me to answer
    Gonna keep on keepin' on
    I can feel it in my bones
    I go to prepare a place for you
    I go to prepare a place for you
    I go to prepare a place for you

Tudo é egoísmo.... tipo: O meu é melhor e bom já os outros são inferiores vou deixar meus fãs falar mal.

    YO, I just came across this song for the first time 5 minutes ago thru a short! I never knew there was a Harriet movie or this beautiful song. IT IS LIKE AN ANTHEM! Gave me chills!
