9. Yes, it is, Cha! And at the end you can see how many in the audience for the

Academy Awards were brought to tears.

2. I remember seeing that on the Oscars.

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.

3. "One of the most powerful and moving things I have ever seen on TV" - I had the same reaction

to their performance that night.

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.

I had not seen it before and it is just stunning. I hope this is performed for his memorials - with the bridge renamed in honor of John Lewis.
