    I was reading a letter my Dad wrote me 12 years ago where he mentioned this song. He died last year on March 17 and listening to this song now for the first time feels like my Dad is speaking to me again, only through music.

    Without getting too caught up in the history here, this song isn't by Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young, but from Graham Nash's first solo album, 'Songs For Beginners'. Well worth a listen, the album is simply stunning.

      Technically what you are saying is true. However, the song appeared on the CSNY album 4 Way Street. Nash performed it solo during the acoustic set. So as a result it is also thought of as a Crosby Stills Nash and Young song.

      It's harder to communicate now than it was when I was an activist back in 1977. Now there are so many different ways to. Communicate that we have to waste so much.

    I was born in 1960; i was 8 when that song was on the radio (i resonate inspiration when i hear this song.) I've been partially deaf since i was a child so i neither heard nor understood many of the lyrics merely that this was about struggle, overcoming, and making it better: it's an empassioned plea. Some find the tones too strident, but i still find the images disturbing. May the Light of Compassion never fail.

    Uploaded 8 years ago. By now, I hope you know this song is a Graham Nash solo song, not CSN&Y, from his "Songs For Beginners" album. Great video, you did good, although some of the lyrics refer to the later "Chicago 7" trial, where protesters at the convention were charged with intent to incite a riot. The first line of the song refers to Bobby Seale, the only black plaintiff and the eighth member, who was actually gagged and bound to a chair in the courtroom. He was later removed from the trial, leaving 7. The 3 most famous names from this trial are Tom Hayden, Abbie Hoffman and Jerry Rubin.

Same totally indiscriminate gassing. Simple protesting is not going to be enough this time brothers and sisters.

    @NeoVisconteo I think the reference is mistaken in this context, referring to President Kennedy, who if anything was killed for signing a nuclear test ban treaty, planning to withdraw from Vietnam, coming to embrace the civil rights movement (took awhile, but for a politician to even commit himself belatedly is quite something) and reigning in the military-industrial-intelligence complex, which owns this country today

    about Jack/JFK... found on web:
    Graham Nash: "The 'Jack' in my song Chicago is Jack Kennedy. Jack is a term used by many English people as a kind of generic word. Although Kennedy had been dead for years, his spirit lives on."

    Great video. One question. How would Kennedy have impacted the riots (in 68) if he was shot in 63?

    I eat only Rostiks. Of course eating at home too, but I walk, I go there. I watch American TV shows and channels! I take the American search engine. With all my heart I love the country as their own. I know the average American language. But I think language is easy, because I already understand. I learned that there is a place for me, long ago. I like very much! I love. With each day discovering the opening of the United States. U.S. is right for me. similar. :)

    Great song an video. Praying that we don't have to repeat 68. I have run into a couple of people who were there. I got caught right smack in the Rodney King riots and a couple of others, when I was living back home in Los Angeles. Not a good scene to be in. Was the closest to a war zone that I ever want to be in

    And thanks for correcting the "Jack" comment. You're just too young to have lived through the Cuban Missile Crisis or JFK's assassination, soon to be followed by his brother's and Dr. King's. Go visit the Civil Rights Museum, Memphis, TN. It's connected to the old Lorraine Motel, and the overall experience is mind-blowing....
