Thousands were at the Hands Off Demonstration at the Texas Capitol,
including a number of Hays Dems

 As we continue to protest the unjustness of this current regime, we’ll be posting links to protest songs, some from long ago, but just as relevant today.
Today’s song is Sam Cooke’s “A Change is Gonna Come.
It was an anthem of the Civil Rights Movement, and is still relevant today.
