Did you know? The iconic "We Shall Overcome" anthem, synonymous with the Civil Rights Movement, has roots that trace back to a hymn from the early 1900s. It evolved through time, gaining momentum and power as it was sung by striking tobacco workers in 1945 before becoming the rallying cry for social justice across the globe! 🌍✊
