  • Song & Music in the Movement
    Transcript: Song & Music in the Movement A Conversation with Candie Carawan, Charles Cobb, Bettie Mae Fikes, Worth Long, Charles Neblett, and Hollis Watkins, September 19 – 20, 2017. Tuesday, September 19, 2017 Song_2017.09.19_01TASCAM Charlie Cobb: [00:41] So the recorders are on and the levels are okay. Okay. This is a fairly simple process here and informal. What I want to get, as you all know, is conversation about music and the Movement. And what I'm going to do—I'm not giving elaborate introductions. I'm going to go around the table and name who's here for the record, for the recorded record. Beyond that, I will depend on each one of you in your first, in this first round of comments to introduce yourselves however you wish. To the extent that I feel it necessary, I will prod you if I feel you've left something out that I think is important, which is one of the prerogatives of the moderator. [Laughs] Other than that, it's pretty loose going around the table—and this will be the order in which we'll also speak—Chuck Neblett, Hollis Watkins, Worth Long, Candie Carawan, Bettie Mae Fikes. I could say things like, from Carbondale, Illinois and Mississippi and Worth Long: Atlanta. Cobb: Durham, North Carolina. Tennessee and Alabama, I'm not gonna do all of that. You all can give whatever geographical description of yourself within the context of discussing the music. What I do want in this first round is, since all of you are important voices in terms of music and culture in the Movement—to talk about how you made your way to the Freedom Singers and freedom singing.

I asked him, I said, “Are you sure that’s what you want?” He said, “Yeah.” I said, “Well, I ain’t makin’ a promise that I might not be able to keep, but I’ll put some stipulations in it, a possibility.” I said— 0:00:20.8 End file 1-1. File 1-2 0:00:00.0 —and I finished ninth grade at Stringtown [?]. Well, I said I finished it. I went. At the end of the school year I got an award for being an occasional ___ student. So the next year I quit. I had to put in the crops, and I stayed there about two years, and I went to my granddad’s. ‘Cause we walked miles one way to catch the—little over three miles, ‘bout three and a quarter miles to catch the bus and had to be there about 10 minutes to 7 in the mornin’ and then ride it several miles into school. And had three different creeks to cross, and they didn’t have bridges over ‘em, and sometimes that was ___, and sometimes I just didn’t want to go. So anyway, then I went back and I started in the tenth, and I never did go pick up my grades or report cards, so I don’t even know if I passed the ninth or not.

  • White Hot Truth
    PRAISE for Danielle LaPorte's White Hot Truth "Danielle LaPorte’s White Hot Truth comes straight from the messy, complicated world of authentic life experience. She is a force field of energy, wonder, humour, and love." – Eve Ensler, author of The Vagina Monologues and In The Body of the World "Danielle LaPorte is a bright light in the modern priestesshood. She keeps it spiritual, she keeps it real, she keeps it good." – Marianne Williamson, NY Times bestselling author of Tears to Triumph "Our souls are yearning for Danielle’s liberating message—that discern- ment is crucial to our true spiritual freedom. She’s as compassionate as she is fiery, and every contemporary seeker will see themselves in her hard won—and very timely—White Hot Truth." – Dr. Shefali Tsabary, NY Times bestselling author of The Awakened Family "Searing grace! When Danielle LaPorte writes, there is nowhere to hide. White Hot Truth is an incendiary device for the soul. Raw, honest, funny, wise, it’s a portal to the part of you that’s always wanted to see the light of day, but never quite knew how to find its way out. Read it. Live it. Breathe it. Be it." – Jonathan Fields, author of How to Live a Good Life "I devoured this book. The way Danielle questions our approach to self- actualization and reminds us what self-love truly looks and feels like is a revelation and a revolution. Let this book be your guide to what you already know in your bones but may have forgotten as you’ve traversed the crowded spiritual growth industry.
