I agree 1000 especially in our African community (Africans that's been stolen from Africa brung to America) because not one man or black man that they call Americans. We been stolen so this why we are the way we are today because white people made us believe in the jim crow education. So now look at us hating each other no type of respect for each other.
Not all of them. My mother never respected me in any way and was abusive to me into her 90s. She was also never open to learning or changing so those extra years meant nothing. As the song says you can't expect respect from someone you disrespect.
This is one true song by the staple singers Respect yourself!!! Do anyone out there know what the meaning of Respect Yourself? Especially the young generation today? They should sit down and listen to this song and get the true facts!!! Respect Yourself!!!
@@josephsanchez6924 They should but some parents (mine for example) are more interested in their own lives than dealing with the children they brought into the world. I learned more from this song and others than I ever did from anybody at home. Sure your way would be ideal, but for those of us less fortunate, a good song is a life saver.
This song talks about "respecting yourself" and not "acktin da foo'", about "not hating on Christians", about "fixing your own mess" and about looking at the massive problems inside the "black community"
I don't care to ask questions, like: "Who is still listening in whatever year it is?!" Because great songs that cause you to feel and/or think will always have someone listening. "Respect Yourself" is a great song. So, listeners, please continue to think and feel. Peace!
"Take your sheet off your face boy, It's a brand new day" Too many people need to listen and understand this song because The Staple Singers ain't b.s.ing.
This was one of my songs…you understood the assignment…Back in the day songs were so different ….so good and they stand the test of time…they are still played and appreciated today…I know I’m the only one out there!!!!!
I’m 30 years old and this is my jam. I listen to it a lot. I love the staple singers, especially Mavis. Got a girl crush on her. Lol!!! Her voice is so unique.

Levon Helm brought me here. I have heard this song all my life but never really listened to the lyrics as close as I just did. Very well done and enjoying. Peace to all
Respect yourself The staple singers love the song then I love it even more today but in the present time today people need to respect each other that's how much this world has changed since 1987 respect each other brothers and sisters amen

The world needs this tune now more than ever . The world is going insane and has lost basic morals and respect

I`m an old fogey but I actually remember when people showed respect. This world is sliding down the tubes quicker and quicker.
58 baby here raised my 3 children with this exact sentiment
Respect Elders that deserve it.They been here before us!

Looks like dannypalmer added "that deserve it" after my comment. That helps.
@@mgmail7279 You sound like a jezebel.
Honor thy father & mother. Its not "demand respect from your elders"
EARN IT!

If you want respect ✊🏿 you have to give respect ✊🏿 Treat people how you want to be treated ✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿
That's a good tie-in for The Golden Rule (Matthew 7:12).
Teach your children that while they learning facts of Public life!
Omg!, I'm 18 lost between generation boundaries but i am happy for the old soul within me, LOL STAPLE THE WORLD
I will forever love this song. She's an Amazing Artist. 1980s baby here. More power to her.✊🏾😇
We were warned back then in every verse.
