Fifty five years later and we are singing the same song. We must keep on seeking justice until the end!!!
55? 57!
I had the same thought today! Well, yes, she sang it already 1963. Today I have been singing it throughout the day. Its a good feeling - soothing. Thank you Joan!!! I am from Germany, Berlin! :)
I am playing it on my Granddads concertina in Poland. Heard it first in 63! Changed my life]
We need this song today!
Okay so nobody’s talking ab how perfect and beautiful the singing is?
Have you seen those innocent and humble faces to claim peace and to be heard, all singing together this beautiful song? It's overwhelming. How come the US people has learn so little not to say anything from their history so far?
The greatness of soul
speaks for itself. The beauty and brilliance of her heart, of her soul, says
everything we need to know about her unshakable calling for the Light to
overcome the shadow in humanity. And she has the magic power of touching the
very best we may have inside. This is the job she chose since she was a child .
She keeps doing it with incredible beauty at her 78s. May we deserve to have
her with us for the years ahead. God bless Joan Baez, forever.(Sorry for my broken english. I´m brasilian )
More relevant now than ever
Was going to say this too
Red Salute from India ✊🏽✊🏽
Absolutely.
Yes of course every Black American was brave but my God to be white and stand morally correct during this time... must not be overlooked or unacknowledged. Thank you to our brave white asian Hispanic indigenous folks who stood shoulder to shoulder that grand day💔💔💔💔💔💔💔🙌🏾
You got that right!
In spite of all that is happening in our 🌎 and our country, lets remember and never forget that in God's name, WE SHALL OVERCOME!
We NEED THIS MINDSET in TODAY'S WORLD!!!

Oh, Joan Baez,,, I remember this moment... It was beautiful as could be.
Please don't stop your fight against war. We want freedom on the world
Monika Sieg
some who don't fight, never have freedom... sad to say
War??? Its not meant for war!? It was meant for the civil rights movement, especially for the freedom of the black people.
@@unexpected8166 Until all of us are free, none of us are free.
@@unexpected8166 Both the civil rights movement and the anti-war movement were against the same enemy- those who profit of misery, oppression, hatred and war.
57 years later I want to march on
This gives me chills
*heart explodes*
i used to sing this to my niece when she was a baby.

This songs still goes for December 14, 2018! We shall overcome of being fearful of speaking up when it comes to God's people and our health & wellbeing being poisoned!
Unforgettable moment which forever lives in my heart and soul!! Alberto
Were you there that very day?
such a great song!
Historic video. Memories, memories ! Bons souvenirs de Montréal.
I’m sucking back the tears. This is the America that hits me in the gut and overwhelms me with emotion. There may be some nostalgia mixed in but probably not as I was only 2 in 1964. I’m damn proud of #MoreOfUs.
Great to see this, thank you! We shall overcome :-)
Absolutely Relevant today April 23, 2021

Hermosa melodía, hermosa mujer...
We shall live in peace NOW!!!!

Very difficult to believe that after all that has happened that there is so little real progress. There is in the heart of the human a desire to destroy based on a fear that is unnatural.
Back in 1964/5 (can't remember the exact year now!) this was sung during morning assembly at my traditional red brick English grammar school instead of the normal hymns. Sadly, it doesn't seem to have done much good.
Still very relevant
Such a wonderful song man

trump needs to face the masses fighting for peace and justice
The cross is not a joke, you think you’re funny when you put cannabis on the cross, but that is very offensive and rude
The sound of god
Sad, there is still so much hate,false pride in this country.
George Floyd ✊
