Kate Smith from the Flyers vs Bruins Stanley Cup Playoffs May 19th 1974

[@AdrienneMonestere]

@@smartluck100 (CNN): In 1933, Smith starred in the film “Hello, Everybody!” in which she sang the song “Pickaninny Heaven.” The song asks “colored children” living in an orphanage to dream about a magical place of “great big watermelons." Another song that has raised eyebrows in recent weeks is Smith’s 1931 rendition of “That’s Why Darkies Were Born,” written by Ray Henderson and Lew Brown. The song was also covered by African-American singer and activist Paul Robeson. Some people have said the song was originally considered satire. But today, those lyrics read much differently: “Someone had to pick the cotton, Someone had to plant the corn, Someone had to slave and be able to sing, That’s why darkies were born”

Very well performed! You just knew after that performance that there was no way the Flyers were gonna lose that game.

I watched it again, and I get tears in my eyes. Thank y ou, my son.

Beautiful, and very stirring. And if you're an American, or Flyer fan, or even a Bruins fan, and you see this, and you don't get a lump in your throat and a tear in your eye, you're somebody I don't want to know.
