"It was labor day weekend, and I was seventeen. I almost had a
psychic girlfriend, but she left me before we met."

"That's your excuse for not doing your homework John?"

"No. I was caught in a battle for righteousness, a battle for all
mankind, a battle for freedom. I remember the march, like it was
yesterday.

"Bobby was there. We all were. Come on, join in. Do it for the
little people!"

A hush fell over the room. Then a solo baritone began,

Kitty, Bobby, Jubilee, Rogue and Kurt joined in.

For the wretched of the earth
there is a flame that never dies
Even the darkest night will end
and the sun will rise."
