When Mayfield recorded this song in 69, I was in elementary school, and it made me feel like I could be somebody in this life. As a black youth, watching the Civil Rights Movement in the South was very discouraging, so I really needed to know that I could be a winner...

Brothers and sisters, it is time to stop the self hate, tearing each other down. Recognize the greatness and God given power that we have. The slideshow/pictures of intelligent, strong, and CAPABLE black men and women made me felt 10 feet tall. Excelling in every field of endeavor or discipline whether it is in music, sports, entertainment, politics, etc. Come on people, let's reverse the curse and stand in the Sun! Where we are meant to be!!!

Oh! This made me cry so hard! And, this has always and always will be my very favorite! Today we need to spread this song and give tribute to "Mr. Curtis Mayfield" for his vision. He was such an intellectual black man even with his own struggles he was a genius, DEEP! I didn't just roll on skates to his music, I listened to his lyrics even as a child I knew he was deep and he was here to deliver a message and he did that well. RIH Curtis M.

This song became my favorite during the 1960s decade. I first heard it from a jukebox at a neighborhood youth corps organization for a youth summer work program. I love this extended version and the pictures of the various towns in the states of the United States. Creative Force did an outstanding job.

Curtis was a genius and his music was way ahead of the time. Too many skylines, sports, and entertainers and not enough historical figures. Why not the Tuskegee Airmen, First Black General, Booker T Washington, Thurgood Marshall, WEB Du Bois, Jesse Owens, Charles Drew, Jack Johnson, Eddie Robinson, Frank Robinson, Art Shell, Whitney Young, Black Army Tank Division who saved George Patton ass in The Battle of Bulge. I could go on and name thousands more, but that would take all day so I'm gonna leave it right there. Peace and 💘 Love....
