I'm listening to this on MLK's birthday, but it's still appropriate nevertheless.

"...We must rapidly begin the shift from a `thing-oriented' society to a `person-oriented' society. When machines and computers, profit motives and property rights are considered more important than people, the giant triplets of racism, materialism, and militarism are incapable of being conquered.'' -- MLK.

This is an amazing mix, my deepest thank you for assembling this. Words can hardly describe what some of these songs mean to me.

this is the best mix i think i've ever heard. real talk. i want to go to city council meetings with a 1987 tape deck and blast it.

This is like an essay for Critical Race Studies, except infinitely better. Can I force people to listen to it?

What a wonderful mix.
