Thank you for sharing the beloved history & legacy of the the Johnson brothers and BH upon this 2nd day of BHM! I remember singing LEVAS as a child everyday before class began at school. We need to get back to that. I'll make it my duty to incorporate it in my lessons and programs. What once was a children's poem to being the Black National Anthem... and here we are today educating the world about such honorable literary work. Gratitude!
