letra de hector pieterson - one drop
hector pieterson your death forever left a bloodstain
so we declare this a holiday
soweto youth will rally in the streets so all will hear
with their fists high in the air
june 1976 though a normal day of tension
grew into something tragic
south africa’s uprising in the township of soweto
home of 2 n0bel prize winners tutu and mandela
“cause a language is taught, afrikaans in school
a system of apartheid to control and rule
they knew a foreign language would make test scores hurt
to keep the black man from doing more than service work
i said
hector pieterson your death forever left a bloodstain
so we declare this a holiday
soweto youth will rally in the streets so all will hear
with their fists high in the air
the students got together to protest in peace
at the corner of moema where it meets vilakazi
armed with a voice singing the sotho anthem
against guns and ammunition and the violence you’d imagine
police shot tear gas
then them bullets would pass
k!lling so many people
more than 500 would pass away
and you were only at the age of 13
the resistance is your memory
hector pieterson your death forever left a bloodstain
so we declare this a holiday
soweto youth will rally in the streets so all will hear
with their fists high in the air
