For all the people whose life sucks right now, from all of us who are pissed about that fact and want to help.
Holly Near, "Singing For Our Lives" (which for UU people is literally a hymn; I was first introduced to the song that way. We ARE a Gentle Angry People, and we will sing until their EARS BLEED. More if necessary.)
Singing For Our Lives, by Holly Near
from the album Solidarity Songs for Tim DeChristopher's Trial
Rabbi Jill ZimmermanI saw the great #HollyNear last night in concert. She & her #music had a profound influence on me in college. Her activism & feminism & songs of justice still bring me inspiration & hope for a better future. Yes I was a #fangirl. I was hoping she would sing my favorite “I Am Willing” & she opened with it! https://youtu.be/1AkGk5maD8Q?si=Ox-Mu7T1Z_iULcCm
I Am Willing
