TWIR 12.17.23 Parting Gifts: Grief and Community

We Are Building Up a New World

This live recording of Dr. Vincent Harding’s song for the freedom movement is of a multi-racial “movement choir practice” in Denver, CO in December 2014, being led by Minister Daryl J. Walker. We are deeply grateful to the Freeney-Harding family for letting us use the song for this podcast. This song has been the theme song of our podcast since the beginning. Enjoy it now in its entirety. Lyrics: 1 - We are building up a new world (3x) Builders must be strong. 2 - Courage, sisters, don't get weary, courage, brothers, don't get weary. Courage, people, don't get weary, though the way be long. 3 - Rise, shine, give God glory (3x) Children of the light!
