In the summer of 1966, I went to Mississippi to be in the heart of the civil-rights movement, helping people who had been thrown off the farms or taken off the welfare roles for registering to vote. While working there, I met the civil-rights lawyer I later married - we became an interracial couple.

Im Sommer 1966 ging ich nach Mississippi, um im Herzen der Bürgerrechtsbewegung zu sein. Ich half Menschen, die aus den Farmen geworfen worden waren oder die Sozialrollen für die Registrierung genommen hatten. Als ich dort arbeitete, traf ich den Zivilrechtsanwalt, den ich später heiratete - wir wurden ein interracial Paar.

Music has been so healing in my life, so the fact that my music could be that for someone else is the best gift of my whole career. People have told me that they got married to my music, divorced to my music, and played my music while they were having their baby.

It was very clear to me in 1965, in Mississippi, that, as a lawyer, I could get people into schools, desegregate the schools, but if they were kicked off the plantations - and if they didn't have food, didn't have jobs, didn't have health care, didn't have the means to exercise those civil rights, we were not going to have success.
