Just last week had a conversation with a young Black education specialist frustrated that many of her White peers told the at-risk youth they work with a GED was just as the same as staying in school and graduating. It absolutely is not. I got family to prove it.

This one, also from her first album First Take (because she did all the songs in 1 take,) written for a broadway play but which, in 1969, she said she sang for gay men trying to live their lives.

That turn into "autumn turns the leaves to gold" ...
