It's outrageous
to defend
It is indefensible
Their sole purpose
Is to insure that millions
Of innocent men, women, and children
Remain in bondage
Here there is a moral repulsion
Over the support of slavery
There, a good many decent men
Are sold
Do not allow empathy to
Obscure your moral vision
Our past is not
Only an empty memory
It is our history
It is their truth
