Cockburn, Bruce - Red Brother Red Sister Lyrics
Went to the museum, red brother
Saw your ancient bloom cut, pressed and dried
A sign said wasn't it clever what they used to do
But it never did say how they died
Went to Regina, red sister
Heard a cab driver say what he'd seen
'There's a grand place to eat out on Number One
All white ladies if you know what I mean'
Hey hey hey...
Went to a pow wow, red brother
Felt the people's love/joy flow around
How they used my Saviour's name to keep you down
Hey hey hey...

It left me crying just thinking about it

Bruce is as good as anyone at stirring the heart. What a gentle man.
Heartrendingly beautiful...
This song brought tears to my eyes when I first heard it.
So relevant in our day and time. The Native peoples are not gone. They are still here.
So genius
Simply brilliant!
