Commentary: "Sons and Daughters" begins & ends with quotations from the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., speaking about the anthem "We Shall Overcome" & his belief that "we shall overcome" because "behind the dim unknown standeth God within the shadows, keeping watch above His own."
"How free is anyone, when some are still in chains,
Slaves to brokenness, all this blindness?
How free is anyone, when all these doubts remain
In the dead of night, no sign of the light?
"Child, don't grow weary, soon we will see the sun.
"All my brothers help each other,
All my sisters walk together,
No one is a stranger,
We're all sons and daughters…"
