I Grew Grass
Some of us are even different colors! If we miss the point, if we overlook the essence and fail to get down to the basic truth of who we really are and what really makes us up, if we fail to see this and miss the true concept, that’s called Racism.
IAL Funder Letter #7
Our particular language is music and song. It’s a universal language that speaks to all. It entertains, educates and inspires. It’s a joyful enterprise.
What Have We Done?
Sad to think that that period of such total confusion was one of the beginnings of America. We conquered the Indian Nations of America, wiped out their homes, imprisoned them, destroyed their culture, and looked down our not-so-holy noses at their religion and their God.
Shame.
IAL Funder Letter #5
Ah and I see upon Kilamanjaro
The souls of our forefathers
Standing before us
The mem'ries of Medgar
And Malcolm and Martin
Run deep in our blood
The fires of apartheid
Still burn through the tears screaming
"power to the people" Amandla awaytu
"power to the people" Amandla awaytu
"power to the people" awaytu
We come from Soweto
We come from the Zulu nation
We come from the ghetto
We look to South Africa
IAL Funder Letter #4
And the time shall come
When the choice is made
And the voice deep inside
Will stay with you and be your guide
Through the waters ahead
Well, that time is now.
It's a still small voice
Can you hear it?
The Birth Of A Nation (Of Soccer)
Looking back, we were always a bit ragtag, but we were a team. We believed in ourselves and it didn’t matter that we were from a small school; we were a group of dedicated players with a cause far beyond the game itself. We were out to prove that soccer was a great game to be valued as an American sport.
IAL Funder Letter #3
Who will heal the world?
Who will save the children?
Who will cleanse the waters of the earth?
Who will heal the world?
Who will stir the ashes?
Who will bring the barren land to birth?
IAL Funder Letter #2
Using music as the great communicator is powerful, but not enough. One must also have content. One must also have the answers to the problems. Those answers, we believe, are found not in material solutions, but spiritual.
Love is the answer.
