    Before learing the meaning of the songs, aint got no i got life made me feel more powerful, after years of bullying and domestic violence, my self esteem was almost inexistent, over the years i learned how to hate myself less, but with this song, i started loving myself. I´m a latinoamerican man, in a latinoamerican country, always stayed in the middle class, and i´ve never been discriminated by my skin. I feel like this song wasn´t originally for people like me, but at the same time, is one of the few things in the world that makes feel good about myself. sorry if something is bad written, english is not my first language

    Pas encore née à l'époque de Nina Simone... Mais des paroles simples et justes qui ont leurs raisonnances en 2023. Égalité, liberté d'être soi et juste soi et d'avoir autant de valeur que l'autre . Merci Nina tu m'apportes de la joie de vivre et que du bonheur 🙏

    This song is about the reality of freed slaves in the US, a sad part of world history that will never be erased or healed. It's a damage that is done against humanity and all we can do now, it's to educate our children to be kind to each other so the past don't repeat itself. Black lives will always matter, same for Native American lives! I love the cultural contributions of Black America! The best of all!

      Native Americans are still suffering much worse than blacks, reservation life isn't easy. Suffering is a thing all colored races have in common though. Things will change if people recognize the problems and search for solutions to patch up the fucked up pieces of the past.

    When I first heard it, I played it constantly for weeks and weeks. This is one of the greatest songs ever written and I will love it forever.
    So much about Nina Simone is just phenomenal, and I love her for all of it. 💜💜💜

    I know this is about the history of African Americans, and I am definitely not trying to make this "a white thing" but I appreciate this song because it could very much resonate with others who easily forget the reality they live in, black or white. This song kind of seems to be a good reminder to remember what you have and to appreciate your life. I have depression and this song really helps me to stay grounded in the present. Nina was a treasure, truly. And again, I am in no way trying to make this a race thing, I just really appreciate this song. Side note - the song kind of reminds me of Hallelujah by Rufus Wainwright.
