I am nearly 52 (1972) in Australia and learnt the original song in Prep, in 1977 and is the same as USA kindergarten. Kindergarten here is preschool. We had a student teacher with a guitar and she taught us the original version of this song. I have never forgot the song. I am an atheist but live gospel music and love many church songs for the lovely music only
It is -- unbelievably uplifting -- (Regardless of one's religious beliefs/ or choice on that-- ) I ( personally- NOT an atheist but)-- GLAD you enjoy it. Marvelous company too-- catch them if you cam live. :) Alvin ailey
I love this-- I LOVE classical ballet -- but these dancers and the music here-- phenomenol in their own right. I Have seen Ailey live at least 3x now-- (AND briefly got to meet Judith Jamison when she was director-- I was So... in awe! Judith Jamison!? Amazing).
I had the honor of attending a dance performance by this Company. I was moved and I was in awe of the movements, the music, and the inspiration. Long Live Alvin Alley Dance Company. 🙏🏼🙏🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼❤️❤️❤️
I had the enormous luck to usher in that theatre during college and when Ailey was there I never left early!! And when Judith Jamison performed I was in heaven!!! 🎉 🎉
sorry to be so off topic but does anyone know a trick to get back into an instagram account?? I stupidly forgot the password. I love any tricks you can give me.
Yes, but coming from a place of respect, I'm a white atheist and this song is false inspiration...it's rooted in the religion of white supremacist slave masters. Religion and racism are equally regressive and debilitating. When we've colonized Mars, our descendants will be over both, when we can reach other star systems, it won't even matter what continent our genetic forebears came from.
@@AH-qu8my I wasn't asking anything. Christianity was used to subjugate both African slaves as well as Native Americans. The doctrine of Manifest Destiny reinforced the lie that Europeans had the right to the North American territories and that we didn't have any obligation not to disrupt the way of life of the Native inhabitants. Good example of Christian doctrine where it doesn't belong: Christian boarding schools took it upon themselves to cut Native American boys' long hair short because they thought it was Native Americans' obligation to obey what 1st Corinthians preaches about long hair on men-Long hair is supposedly only for women as a crowning glory but long hair a disgrace to a man. That's not Native males' tradition. Native males' tradition is to wear their hair as long as their women do and it doesn't matter what the Bible says.

I saw the Alvin Ailey company do this decades ago in NYC. I have never forgotten it!
I actually saw it in Buffalo, decades ago when I attended UB Bet it was the same tour.
I had the enormous luck to usher in that theatre during college and when Ailey was there I never left early!! And when Judith Jamison performed I was in heaven!!! 🎉 🎉
