We Shall Overcome
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."

shall we
"Should we now proceed? If you are in a situation where a group is gathering to do something (go out for lunch, start a meeting, etc.), "Shall we?" would mean something like "Are we now all ready and is it now time to proceed with what we are here for?". (Or more simply, "Should we now proceed?", but that explains "shall" in terms of "should".)

Ratfucker
Brought to public attention by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein in the book on the fall of Richard Nixon, All The President’s Men, ratfucker was Nixon’s term for a political operative who sows chaos among opponents; an agent provocateur. It is thought to have originated among campus political rivalries at USC, and seems to have some usage in the US military.
Along with Nixon’s other ratfuckers, Roger Stone caused fights at otherwise peaceful Democratic Party protests to generate a false narrative that the Democrats were violent and dangerous.

That ol' gal of mine drives the 12 lane freeway during the week and a John Deere on the weekends. She likes opra and the Grand Ol' Opry. I love them countrypolitan women.
