Five Songs for the Weekend - LXXIX -

So sad to witness the recent events taking place in the USA especially in a country that claims to be founded on equality. And all ll of this is happening during a COVID-19 pandemic. The US has suffered more than 100,000 deaths, the largest number in the world, with black people dying disproportionately. A social distancing advisory is still in place, but the sense of injustice and revulsion against the May 25 killing of George Floyd, a black man, by Derek Chauvin, a white police officer, in Minneapolis, Minnesota, is so great that thousands, taking the risk of perilous infections, have come out on the streets for protests. I guess these injustices will never end with these imprudent politicians that are in power all around the world...

As Bob Marley once said;

“I believe that racism, hatred and evil 

can be healed with music."

Here is the list for this weekend;

• Bob Marley - "Zimbabwe"

• Lenny Kravitz - "Here To Love"

• Andra Day - "Strange Fruit"

• Sam Cooke - "A Change Is Gonna Come

• Maureen Aku Disu - "One Human Race"

Hope you have a great weekend.
