What do you do with the mad that you feel
When you feel so mad you could bite?
When the whole wide world seems oh, so wrong...
And nothing you do seems very right?
What do you do? Do you punch a bag?
Do you pound some clay or some dough?
Do you round up friends for a game of tag?
Or see how fast you go?
It's great to be able to stop
When you've planned a thing that's wrong,
And be able to do something else instead
And think this song:
I can stop when I want to
Can stop when I wish
I can stop, stop, stop any time.
And what a good feeling to feel like this
And know that the feeling is really mine.
Know that there's something deep inside
That helps us become what we can.
For a girl can be someday a woman
And a boy can be someday a man.

Let this be the last time…
I had two options. One was to remain silent and wait to be killed.
And the second was to speak up and then be killed.
I chose the second one. I decided to speak up.
Let this be the last time…
Why is it that countries which we call strong
are so powerful in creating wars but are so weak in bringing peace?
Why is it that giving guns is so easy but giving books is so hard?
Why is it that making tanks is so easy, but building schools is so hard?
I learned that you need to detach the fruits of lying
When you are resting in the shade of poplar trees
And then go shake those fears out of the blue blue sky
And tell the mountain's butterflies, soon they'll be free
I've learned to pay and to obey
Yeh daddy, that's what I learned in school today...
Let us become the first generation that decides to be the last
that sees empty classrooms, lost childhoods, and wasted potentials.
Let this be the last time that a girl or a boy spends their childhood in a factory.
Let this be the last time that a girl is forced into early child marriage.
Let this be the last time that a child loses life in war.
Let this be the last time that we see a child out of school.
Let this end with us.
Let's begin this ending together, Today, Right here, right now. Let's begin this ending now.
Let this be the last time…

And we must see racism for what it is,
It is a myth of an inferior people.
It is a tragic notion that one group
Has all of the worth and all of the knowledge
All of the significance, all of the purity.
And whenever racism is a basic philosophy
It always brings into being an absolute disrespect
For a human personality.
I hate to hate alone, I cannot hate alone
afraid to be afraid so let me hold your hand.
And I will take you there and we are halfway there,
a place to thrive and rise a haters’ paradise.
Now the question is what do we do.
The answers are hard to find today.
And the fact is that with this kind of move taking place
hatreds are deeper, tensions are greater,
misunderstanding will be wider.
I hate to hate alone, I cannot hate alone
afraid to be afraid so let me hold your hand.
And I will take you there and we are halfway there,
a place to thrive and rise a haters’ paradise.
Often we all feel that we are struggling
and yet, in order to live
you’ve got to maintain hope
you’ve got to go on in spite of…
I hate to hate alone…
The problem can only be solved
when there is a kind of coalition of conscience.
And we’ve got to be that creative minority-
ready to do battle for the sacred vital valid issues of life
ready to do battle for the principles of justice
and goodwill and peace and brotherhood.

Binyamin (Go Down Moses)

Go down Moses, way down.
Go down Moses, way down.
Go down Moses, way down.
Facing me, right up there in the gallery
Overlooking all of us
In this chamber
It’s the image of Moses
Let my people go
When Israel was in Egypt’s land
(Let my people go)
Oppressed so hard they could not stand,
(Let my people go)
So the God said:
Go down Moses, way down in Egypt land
Tell old Pharos to let my people go.
Moses let our people from slavery
To the gates of the promised land
And before the people of Israel
Entered the land of Israel
Moses gave us a message that
Is still the resolve for thousands of years
I leave you with his message today:
“חזקו ואמצו, אל תראו ואל תארצו מפניהם.”
“Be strong and resolute, neither fear nor dread them”
Thus spoke the Lord, bold Moses said;
Let my people go
If not, I’ll smite your first born dead,
Let my people go.
God the lord said.
Go down Moses, way down in Egypt land
Tell old Pharos to let my people go.

It is not enough that we just connect people
We have to make sure those connections are positive
We have to make sure people aren't using their voice
to heart people or spread misinformation
It is not enough that we connect people
Can you define hate speech?
