Le démocrate ouvertement socialiste, le candidat à la Maison Blanche qui s’inscrit dans le droit fil d’Occupy Wall Street, Bernie Sanders a enregistré en 1987, un album en spoken word: We Shall Overcome ( Nous triompherons). Protest song et hymne du Mouvement des droits civiques aux États-Unis.
Les paroles chantées par Bernie Sanders:
As I went walking that ribbon of highway
I saw above me that endless skyway
I saw below me that golden valley
And on this earth
There will be peace
There will be justice
There will be human brotherhood
We shall overcome
We shall overcome
Where have all the soldiers gone
Long time passing?
Where have all the soldiers gone
Long time ago?
Where have all the soldiers gone?
Gone to graveyards, everyone
When will they ever learn?
When will they ever learn?
The banks are made of marble
With a guard in every door
And the vaults are stuffed with silver
That the workers sweated for
