Thread Name: Why is Kumbaya a dirty word?
Subject: RE: Why is Kumbaya a dirty word?
I'm not embarrassed by what I believed in 1962. (I was a tad bit older than 13 though) (ok, sixteen).

I'm embarrassed that I let so much of it fall away, in fact. I guess it makes a difference what you believed when you were 13.

Kumbaya is, after all, a luulaby, not a protest song (as Richard so correctly pointed out). (Sorta).
