With a bunch of white kids singing the refrain - now that's diversity!

I'll quibble with MLK here: God is completely disinterested in the freedom of the human race.  It's been out of God's hands for a long, long time now.

Dave's angle was a bit more pessimistic - "this is the struggle we are engaged in."  Annalisa's is more optimisitc - "this is the struggle we've overcome."  Not surprising that I throw my lot in with the pessimists.

By all means: Patty Griffin!  I haven't heard this song before, but I'm a big fan.

ETA: It's called "Up to the Mountain".
