Sisters Of A Different Skin
by Susan Cattaneo and The Lucy Stone Singers
Sisters of a different skin
Look at the trouble this world’s got in
Together, we can make a change begin
Sisters of a different skin (Sisters)
Every woman wants to be heard
To be seen, to be the queen of her destiny
What we mean is respect, an honest paycheck
Not a buck for 80 cents,
That’s not right, not fair
Equal work should mean an equal share
Equal rights, an equal life, an equal share
Oh, Sisters of a different skin
Look at the trouble this world’s got in
Together, we can make a change begin
Sisters of a different skin (Rise up, Sisters)
Every woman wants to be loved
to be strong, to belong, to be touched
But a “yes” means a “yes”, that’s consent
And don’t you ever forget
It’s not right, it’s not fair
When bullies take what they believe is theirs
They take what they believe is theirs
But it ain’t theirs
Oh
Sisters of a different skin
Look at the trouble this world’s got in
Together, we can make a change begin
Sisters, the time has come to
Rise - Rise up, sisters. Rise - Rise up sisters
We’re womankind, womanbeautiful, womankind, womanbeautiful

My feelings about this are complex but I knew I had to put it in my journal.
Maybe one day I'll try to draw this. How many different ways can I draw a woman?
