A toot by fellow Mastodonian @YakyuNightOwl sent me back to a Chaka Khan and Rufus concert I attended in in the 70s. It was wild!

If you are reading Sonia Sanchez' "To Anita", this is the Curtis Mayfield song that is referenced in the poem. It addresses issues unique to the Black community and calls for Black unity.

Jimmy Carter was well loved and supported within the Black comminity back in the 70s and 80s. There was a strong connection to his relatively humble beginnings and his acceptance of diversity and human rights.

This song was very popular at the time. OK, it's an awful song, but was intended as both an homage to the President and inspiration for us all.

I thought President Biden's was a master class in political knowhow. So I was surprised that some in the media were unimpressed.

Well, I'm not falling for the media spin. I thought the speech and the way he owned the chamber
was 🔥

Taking this back from the orange grifter. This song was written about people like him, not to be used as his anthem
