ESPECIALLY sung unannounced behind the iron curtain on live national TV. Pete was rallying a beleaguered people, and he stepped up and got an enormous pinch hit. He was willing to say to power, "WE ARE NOT AFRAID." Twenty years later, when freedom came, people said this had given them hope and stealed their resolve.

Literally my world view changed after an introduction to his music at a concert at Western CT State University in 1968.

So many young people have never heard of Pete, or his wonderful music, or his "facist-killing machine": The acoustic guitar! My favorite History teacher in HS used to bring his guitar to class, he played and sang this song in the mid-70's. I hadn't heard of Pete before that, but became a fan that day. Mr. Mitchell was Blackfoot native American (and ridiculously handsome). I had such a crush, but I also learned so much in his class. NOBODY skipped Mr. Mitchell's class!

This gospel song, which became a protest song in the Civil Rights Movement is believed to be lyrical descendant of the hymn " I 'll overcome someday " by Charles Albert Tindley. The Hindi version " हम होंगे कामयाब " was a literal translation composed by renowned poet Girija Kumar Mathur. The Bengali adaptation " আমরা করবো জয় " was penned by Bengali folk singer Hemanga Biswas and first recorded by the late Bhupen Hazarika.
