Remarks By CWA President Larry Cohen
Eyes on the Prize
In 1956, as the Civil Rights movement was moving forward after decades of fighting segregation, activist Alice Wine wrote “Eyes on the Prize,” based on a gospel song written decades earlier. A few years ago, Bruce Springsteen popularized it again in a recording with Pete Seeger and it seemed like a good way to begin today. Music can carry us forward in tough times, and CWAers and working families are living through some tough times.
