Every now and then I need my fix of Donny Hathaway and The Ghetto. This song never gets old. It has an unbelievable vibe, even in July 2024.

I'm 68 yo white woman who had the privilege of knowing the only black girl in my school when I was 12. At 14, we went to my first concert, Curtis Mayfield, and my mind was truly blown forever. I am in a hospital in Vienna, Austria right now and haven't made it to a concert in about 30 years. Thank God for KZitem or I probably would have lost my mind years ago. Here I am still listening to donnie, curtis, Stevie, Snoop Dogg, Slick Rick Rhiannon Goddess and finding joy, so much joy! Just listen to this beat! It's healing my pain from surgery and the pain I feel over all the bullsh*t going on in the US. I'd love to come home, but Austrian insurance is a whole lot better lol, so here I stay for a while. Peace and love y'all. Thanks for sharing Donnie with me.

Looking back over a long life of struggle, everyday struggle with uncertainty about the future, this song started running through my mind.
