Black Man
First man to die
For the flag we now hold high
Was a black man
The ground where we stand
With the flag held in our hand
Was first the red man's
Guide of a ship
On the first Columbus trip
Was a brown man
The railroads for trains
Came on tracking that was laid
By the yellow man
We pledge allegiance all our lives
To the magic colors, red, blue and white
But we all must be given
The liberty that we defend
For with justice not for all men
History will repeat again
It's time we learned
This world was made for all men
Heart surgery
Was first done successfully
By a black man
Friendly man who died
But helped the pilgrims to survive
Was a red man
Farm workers rights
Were lifted to new heights
By a brown man
Incandescent light
Was invented to give sight
By the white man
We pledge allegiance all our lives
To the magic colors, red, blue and white
But we all must be given
The liberty that we defend
For with justice not for all men
History will repeat again
It's time we learned
This world was made for all men
Here me out
Oh, now I know the birthday of a nation
Is a time when a country celebrates
But as your hand touches your heart
Remember we all played a part in America
To help that banner wave
First clock to be made
In America was created
By a black man
Scout who used no chart
Helped lead Lewis and Clark
Was [Incomprehensible]
Use of martial arts
In our country got its start
By a yellow man
And the leader with a pen
Signed his name to free all men
Was a white man
We pledge allegiance all our lives
To the magic colors, red, blue and white
But we all must be given
The liberty that we defend
For with justice not for all men
History will repeat again
It's time we learned
This world was made for all men
World was made for all men
This world was made for all men
World was made for all men
God saved His world, all men
All people, all babies
All children, all colors, all races
This world's for you and me
This world, my world
Your world, everybody's world
This world, their world
Our world, this world was made for all men

The secrets of survival in the new world?

And helped farm workers maintain dignity and respect?

And the director of the Red Cross blood bank?

Who was the famous educator and semanticist

Who invented the world's first stop light and the gas mask?
[Incomprehensible] a black man

Who was the man who helped design the nation's capitol
Made the first clock to give time in America and wrote the first almanac?
Benjamin Banneker, a black man
Who was the legendary hero
Who helped establish the League of Iroquois?
Hiawatha, a red man
Who was the leader of the first microbiotic center in America?

Who raised founds to sponsor Cristopher Columbus' voyage to America?

Who was the woman
Who led countless slaves to freedom on the underground railroad?

[Incomprehensible]
