Two songs keep running through my head today: "Keep Marching (On)"

[niyad]

from "SUFFS: The musical", and "Somewhere That's Sane" by Sandy and Richard Riccardi (from the orange creature's first installment of his reign of terror). A couple of lines from "Keep Marching (On)". ."Your ancestors are all the proof you need, that progress is possible, not guaranteed," and, "You may fail or prevail, and you may never know, but keep marching on. . "

Could somebody please post the videos for them? Thanks in advance.

3. Mine is "One Tin Soldier"

That scene at the end of Billy Jack, when they take him into custody and the kids raise their fists in honor as the cars drive away…. That scene just sticks with me all these years later.

Go ahead and hate your neighbor
Go ahead and cheat a friend
Do it in the name of heaven
You can justify it in the end
There won't be any trumpets blowing
Come the judgment day
On the bloody morning after
One tin soldier rides away

Hope these videos show up.

I bought a copy years ago, but I just now found it in my hoopla app for free, although there are other places you can stream for a fee.

On edit, I should add a trigger warning for the Violence, racial, sexual and just in general. Billy Jack’s martial arts are used to fight back against the injustices. I just thought it might be a good idea to forewarn anyone who hasn’t heard of or watched before.
