Sam Cooke - A change is gonna come - 1963

[mnorian]

I was looking up an old 1963 documentary about John & Robert Kennedy called "Crisis behind a Presidential commitment" and came upon this National Archives screening of it; and was taking by surprise by this vocalist; Garrick Jordan; singing the old Sam Cooke song "A change is gonna come?. It's in the first 3:48 minutes:

Every time I hear this song; I can't help it; I start crying; but is still a beautiful song:

Sam Cooke - A change is gonna come - 1963
