Lyrics
Authorized Profile of Guy Carawan with history of the song, "We Shall Overcome" from the Association of Cultural Equity
Freedom in the Air: Albany Georgia. 1961-62. SNCC #101. Diarsipkan 2019-10-12 di Wayback Machine. Recorded by Guy Carawan, produced for the Student Non-Violent Coordinating Committee by Guy Carawan and Alan Lomax. "Freedom In the Air ... is a record of the 1961 protest in Albany, Georgia, when, two weeks before Christmas, 737 people brought the town nearly to a halt to force its integration. The record's never been reissued and that's a shame, as it's a moving document of a community through its protest songs, church services, and experiences in the thick of the civil rights struggle."—Nathan Salsburg, host, Root Hog or Die, East Village Radio, January 2007.
