@@QueenandMia It will come if we stand up and fight equality. It will come one day then when it come that's when they can say we are equal and that is when they can say we have rights in this ugly world we live in I hope this becomes a beautiful word because I don't want my children growing up I a world that has no equality and rights. But I'm a long way from having kids so let start changing the world now and not later.
Hopefully ONE DAY we can all live in equality and no one has to walk around afraid to get shot cause of our skin color ONE DAY we can all be at peace with each other
I am white, and I think it is disgusting and terrible what is happening today. MLK and others gave their lives to change things and they did; and now we're slipping back. I never thought I would see this kind of racism in my lifetime. My heart goes out to all of you. Stand and fight! If I had been alive I would have gone to Selma.
Hellenic boy - we love our white ppl that stand with us. Bc they are the ppl that who understand how horrible it is to be treated different bc the color of your skin. They are awesome, bc they stand up for us. We Love them and they love us. We Love Our Caucasian Allies
LOVE THIS MOVE, MY DADS BLOOD WAS RED, BUT HIS SKIN BROWN. HE FOUGHT FOR THIS COUNTRY, AND WASN'T ABLE TO VOTE FOR A PRESIDENT FOR 13yrs. HE WAS IN THE AIR FORCE IN 1955 AND SPENT 25yrs FIGHTING FOR HIS CHILDREN TO HAVE THE RIGHT TO VOTE, LEARN, AND BE ABLE TO STAND FOR WHAT WAS RIGHT. AN TO TELL OUR CHILDREN HOW BLESS THEY ARE.R.I.P DADDY THANK YOU AND MY CHILDREN WILL CARRY YOUR WORDS AND PAST THEM ON TO THEIRS. M.L.C.D.
This is a very pivotal moment in our history as Americans, lets vote for someone who has been fighting for Civil Rights since the days of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr... Bernie Sanders 2016!
These are not just lyrics. This is not just a soundtrack. This is art that bridges the divide between the history of a past generation's progress and the challenges that stubbornly remain in our society.
I can’t breathe I can’t breathe I can’t breathe I can’t breathe I can’t breathe I can’t breathe I can’t breathe I can’t breathe I can’t breathe I can’t breathe I can’t breathe 11TIMES 11TIMES THOSE WORDS MEAN THE SAME FOR A BLACK PERSON 😢🙌🏻🙌🏿🙌🏾🙌🏽🙌🏼
Truly beautiful! Made me cry! You can relate to the lyrics no matter what you have been through. I'm Syrian and I can relate and join the march because I am fighting for justice too! Freedom will be ours soon.. and soon we will have GLORY :') I applaud every human being fighting for equality and for what is right! You deserve to be free
I don't understand how people here can't understand why Ferguson was mentioned in the lyrics. It isn't just about a single person or a single event or a single tragedy, it's about the systemic oppression black people faced then and still face today, it's about the fact that a peaceful protest is still met with devastating and disproportionate force because oh no black people are congregating and have a purpose, we can't have that! It's about the collective, the intergenerational, the systemic, the whole.
RIP George Floyd RIP Ahmaud Arbery RIP Breonna Taylor RIP Freddie Gray RIP Michael Brown RIP Trayvon Martin RIP Atatiana Jefferson RIP Rashan Charles RIP Antwan Rose We ain't forget you
Chris Hernandez Laughing at your IDIOTIC character. You can't live in my shoes & I'm sure you don't want to. There is no race card here. So until you learn what the struggle is all about, and have lived it, then your idiotically comments my be of some importance. TAKE A SEAT.
Nicole Davis Please. Those who struggle are those who didn't try. I don't need to see what it's like in your shoes and vice versa. I never mentioned anything about race so why don't you forget that.
Been reading some of the comments, and I have to say that I love how a song about human rights, social equity, and the fight for what's right makes people go crazy and write so many negative comments. It just shows you how we live in a technological era and how people lost any shred of humanity they one possessed. The fight for freedom and equality is still present today, all over the world people are being killed for being of a different culture, religion, belief or skin color. It is sad and I hope that we will continue to have civil right leaders who will fight for the common man, be it Malcolm X, Martin Luther King, Ghandi, Mother Theresa, Hassan Nasrallah or the likes, and I wish for a better tomorrow for our children!
Nathan Racher Actually, he is! He lives in a small house in a small village, he lives on the bare minimum, he gives all his money back to the people who need it, he fights for freedom and peace, he's always the first to try a peaceful solution to any conflict. If you do not agree what I'm saying, it means that you know nothing about this man other than what the mediatic propaganda shows you.
Even if I'm not a black person, this song makes me completely understand all the suffering they're going through. A masterpiece that shows perfectly the struggle of #blacklivesmatter and the importance of the movement. In this fight, we're all together ❤️
Amen ma'am and iam praying for you and your family because we all one we are all God's children iam a white guy and iam saying this because it's true and I have already marched and I'll do it again with my brothers and sisters
Incredible film and spectacular soundtrack, the message transmitted is totally felt, the black people should never be discriminated against, all together we will achieve it. #blacklivesmatter #glory
Good morning family I'm up watching this move & I truly appreciate those who made the way may god continue to bless each & everyone of you all peace & blessings we still have a long way to go ,but change will come yes it will .when y'all have a mintue please watch the move Selma
I'm black and I been through something like this before but this is excruciating to see. People died just for following their hearts,that one skin isn't the superior race Millions have been traumatized by this just because of a corrupt system. So what if our skin is darker we can skill be beautiful.We are all special in our way weird or not werid
Martin Luther King Jr made everything possible today for all the people of color. Every people of color owe him a debt of gratitude for the door that’s been opened for us.
The young Americans brought me here, thank you for an amazing few days you beautiful people 💖, I wouldn't share this with you in person, but my glory was to find a world where anyone and everyone is accepted for who they are, and what they are. 💖
We sang this song for Black History Month at my school it was great everyone loves it and it makes me cry when I hear the song R.I.P Martin Luther King jr.
Powerful song. Powerful acceptance speech from you both. Common and John Legend you are two gifted young men. Thank God for the eloquent way you expressed the plight of those who are disenfranchised today. God continue to bless you both.
Iam a white guy and I loved everything about Martin Luther King Jr.i even marched in my town with my brothers and sisters because we are all God's children no matter we all bleed the same blood
Well deserved oscar for a brilliant song with a lot of emotion and pathos. This song encapsulates perfectly the struggle that happened 50 years ago and a fantastic movie to compliment King's brave story of tribulation.
This is to: Tiffany Vaughn You are only 11 I am 47 your words are powerful. I only pray that your generation read this or listen to you say this. Stay positive and true life will be good to you through God Almighty.
"They marched with the torch, we run with it now." Amazing. People these days take advantage of there gifts these days so next time you sleep through class or get a pay check just remember all that went into it.
This is a very inspirational video. Dr. martin Luther King Jr. was a very determined man. What I believe is most important to mention is how he marched for the equality of all men. His persistent message of the importance in recognizing a man's character and not the color of a man's skin should always be remembered and taught. Excellent work by Common and John Legend. I am looking forward to seeing the movie.
Congratulations on your Golden Globe win. As Americans we will only find peace when we ALL band together. No sides, just Americans. Yes, people congregate in groups that they feel more comfortable in, but that should be an excuse to keep us divided as a nation. One day this country will be great for ALL Americans.
God bless yall cos im black 🖤 it makes me cry how much we have been through past 70yrs or so WE ALL SHALL BE TREATED THE SAME as well as this i have also been through racism so stay stafe :(
We are all equal not just black , or Asian , or Hispanic - we all are one and I hope we all fully believe it !!!! We may be different colors but we are all the same - we are America - #AllLivesMatter!!!!!
With the Covid Pandemic, Economic crisis, and now George Floyd and the Riots going on, I feel like the first half of 2016 as been rough. Let's all hope and pray and work towards a redemption in second half of 2020. We will rise again and find the Glory that we so desperately need.
I cried. this song is so perfect. It shows how my ansesters rose up and fought for what was right. and look at black people now! we are successful we start all the latest trends, and our dance songs are lit. Amen? (don't reply if your racist or hate anytabout this song)
Since the attack on Charleston, I was brought back to this video. I feel it is a reminder of the promise that MLK, Malcolm X, and so many others have fought and are fighting for. I believe in that promise. Black lives matter.
We all born for the Glory of the Freedom. I'm sure that all of you could tell your children and others that you'd fight for your Glory one day, that is the freedom you should have. Maybe I'd not fight with you, but every time I learned the history from the book I'd cried out from the inside and I'm proud of that I'm a part of human with you .
I have the great joy of being the grandson of someone who took part in this movement and of someone who shook hands with MLK #FREEDOMFORTHEPEOPLE May the war end soon and may we all be equal
We just preformed this song for our young americans workshop and it was the first one in Scotland... very emotional and moving... loved it and the YA 2016
If you have watched the Oscars, you may have noticed that when Common received the award, he gave a short speech about giving support to the people in Hong Kong. You may be puzzled by his words so please let me fill you in as I am a HongKonger. Last year, 2014, 28th September, HongKongers decided we have had enough of the compression of the Government. Therefore, a movement of occupying of streets broke out at Admiralty, which is next to the Governors office. The aim of the movement was clear as glass,it was to demand true democracy, universal suffrage. But the Government did not give any positive feedback to us HongKongers. So, the movement continued. But, as Admiralty was an important economic area of Hong Kong. With people sleeping on the streets, traffic was affected. So as to shoo the protesters away, the Hong Kong Police got orders to make protesters leave. To be efficient, violence was used on protesters, while many of the protesters were students and teenagers. All kinds of tools were used, such as sticks , pepper spray and tear gases. This damaged the good image of the Police. At this point, the occupying of streets is already over as we, unarmed civilians, do not have the strength to fight back the hostile and brain washed police. But our desire and demand of democracy is not over. And it never will. So, I am asking for your attention to this movement in Hong Kong. The Umbrella Movement. Your kind attention is already a great helping hand to our way towards democracy. Thankyou for your patience, reading this, and please also do accept my apologies for the awful grammar and choice of words. I have no intention of offending anyone and I send my deepest apologies for those who feel offendedn the above passage. Thankyou.
I love this song it kinda open up my eyes on the fact that because of the color of our skin we are slave,gunman, thief, gang bangers....but we are not what they say we are, or want us to be because God control our destiny not then so let's Love one another like we suppose to do. Pace
Greetings to you my brother Common, you truly song this song, it make me cry it’s a very true song! Lord help us give everyone mother who Son’s killed by police for no reason justice for Mr. Tyre Nichols 🙏🙏🙏 beautiful touching song this song touch your heart ❤️ heal our homes & communities 😢😢😢 one day when the Glory comes love you my brother Common God put love ❤️ in your heart Common thank you brother 💜💜💜 why Rose sit on the bus🙏🙏🌞
One day when the glory comes It will be ours, it will be ours Oh one day when the war is won We will be sure, we will be sure Oh glory (Glory, glory) Oh (Glory, glory) Hands to the Heavens, no man, no weapon Formed against, yes glory is destined Every day women and men become legends Sins that go against our skin become blessings The movement is a rhythm to us Freedom is like religion to us Justice is juxtapositionin' us Justice for all just ain't specific enough One son died, his spirit is revisitin' us Truant livin' livin' in us, resistance is us That's why Rosa sat on the bus That's why we walk through Ferguson with our hands up When it go down we woman and man up They say, "Stay down", and we stand up Shots, we on the ground, the camera panned up King pointed to the mountain top and we ran up One day when the glory comes It will be ours, it will be ours Oh one day when the war is won We will be sure, we will be sure Oh glory (Glory, glory) Oh (Glory, glory) Now the war is not over, victory isn't won And we'll fight on to the finish, then when it's all done We'll cry glory, oh glory (Glory, glory) Oh (Glory, glory) We'll cry glory, oh glory (Glory, glory) Oh (Glory, glory) Selma's now for every man, woman and child Even Jesus got his crown in front of a crowd They marched with the torch, we gon' run with it now Never look back, we done gone hundreds of miles From dark roads he rose, to become a hero Facin' the league of justice, his power was the people Enemy is lethal, a king became regal Saw the face of Jim Crow under a bald eagle The biggest weapon is to stay peaceful We sing, our music is the cuts that we bleed through Somewhere in the dream we had an epiphany Now we right the wrongs in history No one can win the war individually It takes the wisdom of the elders and young people's energy Welcome to the story we call victory The comin' of the Lord, my eyes have seen the glory One day when the glory comes It will be ours, it will be ours Oh one day when the war is won We will be sure, we will be sure Oh glory (Glory, glory) Oh (Glory, glory) Oh glory (Glory, glory) Hey (Glory, glory) When the war is won, when it's all said and done We'll cry glory (Glory, glory) Oh (Glory, glory)
#Freedom is like a religion to us"..."That's why Rosa sat on the bus" ...The artistic genius built into this work of cultural and musical art is past amazing. I remember all of these years, they were my years, our years...all Americans stand or fall together so these are all of our years. I laud the artists behind this work. Sara Niles
The rap made it for me. I love Legend's voice and it could definitely stand on it's own. But Common's rapping tells the story guys. I don't know what it is, but it just feels so strong, even though it's so low and smooth and calm.

So happy this song won the Golden Globe award! I did not know it and now I do. It is a beautiful song and so so important.
SAME!
Common and John Legend also won the Critics Choice award too.
Just the way John Legend sings and the meaning in his voice makes me like the song SO much more.
Agreed.
The song keeps winning awards and rightfully so.

I hope Syrians can be free as well!!!!
Yes
It's hard to imagine especially for the kids
Made me cry twice
You know the whole reason why America is backing your rebellion is because the government wants to establish a puppet government there.
Am I the only one who gets goosebumps from this song.
+aadu7ec No. It's an epic song!
not the only one!
That's not nice I don't get goosebumps so u should not we are all the same like the video says
Not at all! We all share in the glory of Dr. King's dream!
Yes right

Yes because the leader of Hezbollah is such a humanitarian.

Good morning family I'm up watching this move & I truly appreciate those who made the way may god continue to bless each & everyone of you all peace & blessings we still have a long way to go ,but change will come yes it will .when y'all have a mintue please watch the move Selma
When i was little I listened to this song everyday to school and at that time i didn't know how deep and meaningful this is.
Regardless of who it mentions, or who it doesn't mention. This song is powerful.
It is not done, we still have hundreds of miles to go and this song May well become a marching song. Well-done movie and outstanding rallying song.
I'm black and I been through something like this before but this is excruciating to see. People died just for following their hearts,that one skin isn't the superior race
Millions have been traumatized by this just because of a corrupt system. So what if our skin is darker we can skill be beautiful.We are all special in our way weird or not werid

That one day is still to come. It has improved. But we are still treated different. One Day.
In honour of Martin Luther King Jr Day
We sang this song for Black History Month at my school it was great everyone loves it and it makes me cry when I hear the song
R.I.P Martin Luther King jr.
This should become the anthem of the #blacklivesmatter movement.
Interesting suggestion. Thanks.
"justice for all isn't specific enough". It's perfect. #blacklivesmatter

I agree

Powerful song. Powerful acceptance speech from you both. Common and John Legend you are two gifted young men. Thank God for the eloquent way you expressed the plight of those who are disenfranchised today. God continue to bless you both.
Hey, my sister. I saw this on the Oscars, it was powerful. People had tears running down their checks.

Every since we seen this for our black history program at my school i been trying to find this song this almost made me cry thank GOD for the freedom
This song is so moving and so good at tying in the long time struggles with today. Thank you John Legend and Common.
We, Hong Kong people, march for democracy and freedom. May Glory come to us soon!
FREE HONG KONG! (From an Asian American)
"They marched with the torch, we run with it now." Amazing. People these days take advantage of there gifts these days so next time you sleep through class or get a pay check just remember all that went into it.
GLORY FOR ALL MEN, FROM SELMA TO SYRIA, FROM MONTGOMERY TO BAMAKO, FROM FERGUSON TO JERUSALEM, FROM EVERYWHERE TO ALL OVER THE WORLD !
i am watching this movie in my class, i promise, i will cry, this fact hurt me so much.
Blessing is your suffering, when you overcome it. Selma is the best movie I ever seen from Black people perspective. Love it!
This is a very inspirational video. Dr. martin Luther King Jr. was a very determined man. What I believe is most important to mention is how he marched for the equality of all men. His persistent message of the importance in recognizing a man's character and not the color of a man's skin should always be remembered and taught. Excellent work by Common and John Legend. I am looking forward to seeing the movie.
OUR BEST WEAPON IS TO STAY PEACEFUL, AMEN!
Very powerful! This makes me proud to be a American, where anything is possible thanks to people like Dr.King.
One day, the Lord will return and right all the wrongs that were ever done. Glory!
He is the only One who can truly unite us and heal us.
The type of people that said civil rights activist were out of line then are the same type of people that insist Ferguson isn't relevant now.
Interesting point. Thanks for sharing.
Lindsey Sears Our lives matter like everyone else. We will continue to fight.
Those are the same people saying the protests happening world wide are worthless and barbaric.
I honestly think if Martin Luther King Jr. was still here the world would've been a better and happier place.
Congressman John Lewis - Rest In Glory!
we are all equal too no matter if were black or white we are all equal if we work together we will make are SWEET GLORY.
Congratulations on your Golden Globe win. As Americans we will only find peace when we ALL band together. No sides, just Americans. Yes, people congregate in groups that they feel more comfortable in, but that should be an excuse to keep us divided as a nation. One day this country will be great for ALL Americans.
God bless yall cos im black 🖤 it makes me cry how much we have been through past 70yrs or so WE ALL SHALL BE TREATED THE SAME as well as this i have also been through racism so stay stafe :(

Not just America; we're the whole of humanity!
say it. say black lives matter.
This won John Legend his Oscar for a reason ✊🏿
I'm hoping Our Youth Choir (SCBC) will take this to another level, I'm looking forward to hearing this sung in Churches.
With the Covid Pandemic, Economic crisis, and now George Floyd and the Riots going on, I feel like the first half of 2016 as been rough. Let's all hope and pray and work towards a redemption in second half of 2020. We will rise again and find the Glory that we so desperately need.
It is very exciting to know that this happened and how they responded to the injustices #blacklivesmatter
I cried. this song is so perfect. It shows how my ansesters rose up and fought for what was right. and look at black people now! we are successful we start all the latest trends, and our dance songs are lit. Amen? (don't reply if your racist or hate anytabout this song)
After the march, then what will we [STAND] for? Re-education and continued unity is prayerfully favored.
Wow! This song just got a Golden Globe Award!!!! It deserves it!
Half a century later and almost nothing has changed. #JusticeforGeorgeFloyd
This sounds so much like a worship song! 🙌❤
I am white dude and this is my favorite song
im a white girl and i love this song but does it really matter about the color of skins

Since the attack on Charleston, I was brought back to this video. I feel it is a reminder of the promise that MLK, Malcolm X, and so many others have fought and are fighting for. I believe in that promise. Black lives matter.
Happy Martin Luther King Dr. Day 2019 💙
Cry for everybody there,feel this is the legend that all generation after Selma never forget.
Who's here listening through and walking through 1880's with me. Like if you're still here in 2024. I will come back in 2025.
We all born for the Glory of the Freedom. I'm sure that all of you could tell your children and others that you'd fight for your Glory one day, that is the freedom you should have. Maybe I'd not fight with you, but every time I learned the history from the book I'd cried out from the inside and I'm proud of that I'm a part of human with you .
I saw this at school I cried when the church blew up poor girls I love this movie it's so powerful people struggle due to race
I have the great joy of being the grandson of someone who took part in this movement and of someone who shook hands with MLK

May the war end soon and may we all be equal
We just preformed this song for our young americans workshop and it was the first one in Scotland... very emotional and moving... loved it and the YA 2016
so emotional, one of the young Americans were crying singing this
The Oscars brought me here. Got misty-eyed with Common and John's performance.
The song inspires a lot of feeling but the most important thing is the fight for freedom between human races 🙏🏻 #ALLLIVESMATTER
If you have watched the Oscars, you may have noticed that when Common received the award, he gave a short speech about giving support to the people in Hong Kong.
You may be puzzled by his words so please let me fill you in as I am a HongKonger.
Last year, 2014, 28th September, HongKongers decided we have had enough of the compression of the Government. Therefore, a movement of occupying of streets broke out at Admiralty, which is next to the Governors office. The aim of the movement was clear as glass,it was to demand true democracy, universal suffrage. But the Government did not give any positive feedback to us HongKongers. So, the movement continued. But, as Admiralty was an important economic area of Hong Kong. With people sleeping on the streets, traffic was affected. So as to shoo the protesters away, the Hong Kong Police got orders to make protesters leave. To be efficient, violence was used on protesters, while many of the protesters were students and teenagers. All kinds of tools were used, such as sticks , pepper spray and tear gases. This damaged the good image of the Police. At this point, the occupying of streets is already over as we, unarmed civilians, do not have the strength to fight back the hostile and brain washed police. But our desire and demand of democracy is not over. And it never will.
So, I am asking for your attention to this movement in Hong Kong. The Umbrella Movement.
Your kind attention is already a great helping hand to our way towards democracy. Thankyou for your patience, reading this, and please also do accept my apologies for the awful grammar and choice of words. I have no intention of offending anyone and I send my deepest apologies for those who feel offendedn the above passage.
Thankyou.
I love this song it kinda open up my eyes on the fact that because of the color of our skin we are slave,gunman, thief, gang bangers....but we are not what they say we are, or want us to be because God control our destiny not then so let's Love one another like we suppose to do. Pace
David Oyelowo, the legend
We are one and one day we'll all stand together for peace and freedom.
Congratulations for the GOLDEN GLOBE!!!

One day when the glory comes
It will be ours, it will be ours
Oh one day when the war is won
We will be sure, we will be sure
Oh glory (Glory, glory)
Oh (Glory, glory)
Hands to the Heavens, no man, no weapon
Formed against, yes glory is destined
Every day women and men become legends
Sins that go against our skin become blessings
The movement is a rhythm to us
Freedom is like religion to us
Justice is juxtapositionin' us
Justice for all just ain't specific enough
One son died, his spirit is revisitin' us
Truant livin' livin' in us, resistance is us
That's why Rosa sat on the bus
That's why we walk through Ferguson with our hands up
When it go down we woman and man up
They say, "Stay down", and we stand up
Shots, we on the ground, the camera panned up
King pointed to the mountain top and we ran up
One day when the glory comes
It will be ours, it will be ours
Oh one day when the war is won
We will be sure, we will be sure
Oh glory (Glory, glory)
Oh (Glory, glory)
Now the war is not over, victory isn't won
And we'll fight on to the finish, then when it's all done
We'll cry glory, oh glory (Glory, glory)
Oh (Glory, glory)
We'll cry glory, oh glory (Glory, glory)
Oh (Glory, glory)
Selma's now for every man, woman and child
Even Jesus got his crown in front of a crowd
They marched with the torch, we gon' run with it now
Never look back, we done gone hundreds of miles
From dark roads he rose, to become a hero
Facin' the league of justice, his power was the people
Enemy is lethal, a king became regal
Saw the face of Jim Crow under a bald eagle
The biggest weapon is to stay peaceful
We sing, our music is the cuts that we bleed through
Somewhere in the dream we had an epiphany
Now we right the wrongs in history
No one can win the war individually
It takes the wisdom of the elders and young people's energy
Welcome to the story we call victory
The comin' of the Lord, my eyes have seen the glory
One day when the glory comes
It will be ours, it will be ours
Oh one day when the war is won
We will be sure, we will be sure
Oh glory (Glory, glory)
Oh (Glory, glory)
Oh glory (Glory, glory)
Hey (Glory, glory)
When the war is won, when it's all said and done
We'll cry glory (Glory, glory)
Oh (Glory, glory)
Thank you
There are parliamentary elections in Venezuela on Sunday, may the glory come on that day upon us.
HAPPY MARTIN LUTHER KING DAY ,FOLKS!!!😁👍❤
#Freedom is like a religion to us"..."That's why Rosa sat on the bus" ...The artistic genius built into this work of cultural and musical art is past amazing. I remember all of these years, they were my years, our years...all Americans stand or fall together so these are all of our years. I laud the artists behind this work. Sara Niles
Wakanda forver shout out to Chadwick Boseman rip 🙏🏿🙏🏾🙏🏽
Screw all to the people who disliked this
This is so beautiful ✊🏿 BLM
The rap made it for me. I love Legend's voice and it could definitely stand on it's own. But Common's rapping tells the story guys. I don't know what it is, but it just feels so strong, even though it's so low and smooth and calm.
