Impressive collection already but you guys are really making an effort to kill the mood with alll these slow and mellow tracks so I’ll join right in 🙂 Here is a trauma related song: We were all wounded at Wounded Knee

We were all wounded at wounded knee
You and me
We were all wounded at wounded knee
You and me
In the name of manifest destiny
You and me you and me you and me.

They made us many promises
But always broke their word
They penned us in like Buffalo
Drove us like a heard
And finally on the reservation
We were going for our preservation
We were all wiped out by the seventh Calvary
You and me you and me.

We were all wounded at wounded knee
You and me
We were all wounded at wounded knee
You and me
In the name of manifest destiny
You and me you and me you and me.

Now we make our promises
We won’t break our word
Well sing, sing, sing out our story
Till the truth is heard
There’s a whole new generation
Which will dream of veneration
Who were not wiped out by the seventh Calvary
You and me you and me.

We were all wounded at wounded knee
You and me
We were all wounded at wounded knee
You and me
In the name of manifest destiny
You and me you and me you and me.

During the decade of the eighties when the saintly Pope John Paul II was visiting Mexico he was asked as to whether he thought world peace could ever be achieved.  Without hesitation he stated: Yes, world peace will eventually be achieved but only after two of the greatest evils of the 20^th century are gone. He added saying: These two great evils are communism and capitalism because both advance their causes through the exploitation of people.

Yes, I use hiphop music in my performance and acting classes a lot.

My students usually love it. I grew up around boys – all my older brothers were into breakdancing and rapping so of course they were my heroes and this stuck.
