    Steve Wonder is the first singer and musical memory of mine. I was 3 years old when I heard him sing “One Little Christmas Tree”, it was on an album called “A Motown Christmas”. Forty Five years later I still can’t get through the song without crying my eyes out. Stevie is just sensational. That is the power of Stevie Wonder’s music and the incredible talent he has.

      I've heard various tracks from "Songs In The Key Of Life" over the years since it was first released. But it wasn't until 2004 that I heard it in its entirety from start to finish and it moved me to tears! That's what music is supposed to do! Move u! Touch u! Not just hear it, but feel it!

    Segregating the black from the white in a blind classroom is not only racist but it’s very cruel and it doesn’t really mean anything to the children being segregated, moreover who it really means something ,is the person doing the segregating because they are the ones actually experiencing the so-called “pleasure”of seeing that happened so that’s probably a good example of the most self-indulgent racist behavior
