Today in Canada we wore orange shirts to remember #everychildmatters. We honor and pay respect to the 150,000 Indigenous children who were forcibly sent away from their families. 2,800 children died, the others scarred for life. The last school closed in 1996- this isn't ancient history. It's real, it's fresh, and it must never be forgotten.
I love this version of the song, and so fitting right now.
Blackbird singing in the dead of night Take these broken wings and learn to fly All your life You were only waiting for this moment to arise
Blackbird singing in the dead of night Take these sunken eyes and learn to see All your life You were only waiting for this moment to be free
Blackbird fly, blackbird fly Into the light of a dark black night
Blackbird fly, blackbird fly Into the light of a dark black night
Blackbird singing in the dead of night…
