Get the sexie shell mug.A symbolic song of the civil rights movement, and sadly still relevant in 2015.
"We shall overcome, we shall overcome,
We shall overcome some day;
Oh, deep in my heart (I know that) I do believe
That we shall overcome some day.
We are not afraid...
We are not alone...
We'll walk hand in hand...
Black and white together...
We shall all be free, we shall all be free,
We shall all be free some day;
Deep in my heart (I know that) I do believe
That we shall all be free some day!"
"We shall overcome, we shall overcome,
We shall overcome some day;
Oh, deep in my heart (I know that) I do believe
That we shall overcome some day.
We are not afraid...
We are not alone...
We'll walk hand in hand...
Black and white together...
We shall all be free, we shall all be free,
We shall all be free some day;
Deep in my heart (I know that) I do believe
That we shall all be free some day!"
Lyndon B. Johnson, introducing the Voting Rights Act of 1965: "But even if we pass this bill the battle will not be over. What happened in Selma is part of a far larger movement which reaches into every section and state of America. It is the effort of American Negroes to secure for themselves the full blessings of American life. Their cause must be our cause too. Because it's not just Negroes, but really it's all of us, who must overcome the crippling legacy of bigotry and injustice.
And we shall overcome."
And we shall overcome."

Get the We Shall Overcome mug.Some say a person is shallow because they judge a person on looks and not their personality when looking for a mate, however that is bull because there is nobody in the world who dates somebody who they deem unattractive but with a great personality, or at least, not for long. Not many people consider some people have a great personality and are really nice because they are unattractive and have to put more effort in for love and acceptance, not simply because they truly are just so funny and nice. If a person is SHALLOW in terms of how things really are, then they pick on the slightest imperfections of people expecting a person to be perfect and becoming critical about standards that shouldn't be incredibly high in certain, given aspects.
"Its good that sally is a model, but she needs to cover up her toes, they are all bent and gross."
