This is a special edition of Weekend Music Thread which has been on hiatus, celebrating one of the most amazing events in presidential campaigns and the prospects of electing the first female president in America’s history!
Last Sunday was a wild rollercoaster ride, as President Joe Biden declared that he was dropping out of the campaign for president and endorsed Vice-President Kamala Harris to take the top of the ticket. The wild swing from shock and devastation in the morning to watching the unity and enthusiasm build behind her during that day and becoming thrilled and hopeful for the future again was a shared experience for millions of conscientious Americans.
So the theme of this weekend’s music thread is about women, strength, determination, and prevailing despite the forces standing against what’s good in this world.
Now it’s your turn, add your favorite songs about hope, strength, women, and winning!
I was going off before they would be confused whether Kamala was black or Tamil. My Scotttish and English genes hate each other… but, my German genes take over?
Tamil – this is MIA… from that tender Sri Lankan conflict… in any case, I can spell Kamala in Tamil btw… that’s all I can do… I took Hind …. Dravidian langs difffs. Let’s just say Northern Indians think they are black. I can’t say this on FB. I’ll be flagged for racism.
It’s been a while
