(9,665 posts)One of the most powerful and moving things I have ever seen on TV. I had no idea it was out there to see it again. The Academy Awards rarely lets copies of its programming out in the wild.
Thank you so much for posting this. It's so appropriate for John Lewis.

I looked for it on YouTube a few weeks ago, after a day of watching protests. The song seemed more fitting than ever.
And especially fitting tonight, as we mourn the loss of John Lewis and remember his greatness.
