With February 2008 coming to an end, we'd like to suggest that people celebrate Black History every day, not only for one month out of the year. Enjoy these tunes--one to soothe and the other to make you groove--from two of our soul music icons.
Donny Hathaway: "To Be Young, Gifted and Black"
Stevie Wonder: "Black Man"

I appreciate Nina's version and I love Aretha's but there is something about Donny's reading of Young,Gifted and Black that words can't describe.....
I seen Nina Simone via YouTube singing Young Gifted And Black.It was just beautiful.I wouldn't trade in my skin color for anything!!!
