The song “Glory” by Common and John Legend is one of the greatest and most influential songs you could listen to in this century. It appeals to emotion by relating current acts of racism to those of the civil rights movement. Common says “that’s why Rosa sat on the bus‚ that’s why we walk through Ferguson with our hands up.” He wants those who have had to endure similar experiences to know they are not alone and those who have not to understand the movement. This song reminds me everyday of experiences
