And here are more songs, chosen by Anthony
We have put here 3 of Anthony's favourite songs, which each, in their own way, encapsulates a vision of hope of Anthony: whether the mother that Anthony never had to care after him, as ("let it be, there will be an answer") , the hope of being supported, encouraged and loved ("You are not alone"), or even the hope in a better future with less discrimination in America ("A change is going to come"). You too can create your own song in support of Anthony Mungin.
Let it be (Across the Universe)
McCartney said he had the idea of "Let It Be" after a dream he had about his mother during the tense period surrounding the sessions for The Beatles (the "White Album"). McCartney explained that his mother—who died of cancer when McCartney was fourteen—was the inspiration for the "Mother Mary" lyric. He later said, "It was great to visit with her again. I felt very blessed to have that dream. So that got me writing 'Let It Be'." He also said in a later interview about the dream where his mother had told him "It will be all right, just let it be." Let's hope there will be an answer to the violence in America thanks to more education, knowledge and understanding.
You are not alone, Michael Jackson
"You Are Not Alone" is the second single from Michael Jackson's album HIStory. The R&B ballad's composition has been attributed by R. Kelly in response to difficult times in his personal life (Kelly wrote the song after the loss of close people in his life). This song also teaches about hope: Kelly was delighted to be able to work with his idol, explaining "I was psyched ... I feel I could have done his whole album. It was an experience out of this world ... It's amazing to know that five years ago I was writing songs in a basement in the ghetto and now I'm writing for Michael Jackson ... I'd be a fool not to say it's a dream come true."
Let's hope that Anthony Mungin will be not left alone in his quest for justice and freedom.

Sam Cooke: A change is gonna come
While on tour in May 1963, and after speaking with sit-in demonstrators in Durham, North Carolina following a concert, Cooke returned to his tour bus and wrote the first draft of what would become "A Change Is Gonna Come". The song also reflected much of Cooke's own inner turmoil. Known for his polished image and light-hearted songs such as "You Send Me" and "Twistin' the Night Away", he had long felt the need to address the situation of discrimination and racism in America.
Let's hope that the Mungin case will be the opportunity to operate such change.
