    You want 4 yeses - or as many as possible? YES from me!
    Aww, but I got 4 No's on BGT! lol.

  • Poetic Dan

    Indeed the last part of our history we need to undo, black lives matter too. Even sad that we need to continue this tune but we can't stop adapting it until the next generation see the mistakes made!

    Brilliantly done!

  • Poetic Dan

    Great tune too but then I'd expect nothing less!

    Much peace and respect

  • Goldfinch60

    YES.

    Super music as well.

    Only just read this and it's a big YES from me too.

    I married my wife 66 years ago and I got abuse from other whites - thankfully only in the very early years and neither of us have witnessed it since - SO - All LIVES matter

    YES!

    Sometimes late but always on the side of being better than we are, by way of rising up to understand another person. Period.
