Alabama’s gotten me so upset
Tennessee made me lose my rest
And everybody knows about Mississippi, goddamn
Nine Simone’s “Mississippi Goddamn” has a new meaning now…
While the gains we made during this election were impressive, Scott Colom, Angie Nixon, and Gina Hinojosa were the closest to my heart and impressed me the most. My folks are from the Geechee corridor of the SE corner of Georgia/NE corner of Florida, and I have relatives in Mississippi and Texas. I lived in Texas for many years, and Mississippi is a place I know well. Now for Angie 2028!
Nina first performed and recorded “Mississippi Goddamn” at Carnegie Hall in 1964.
