Stevie Wonder Delivers Influential Speech Mid-Concert On Recent Killings

Legendary singer and musician Stevie Wonder may not be able to physically see, but right now he is seeing clearer than some people with 20/20 vision.  During a recent concert in Seattle for his Songs In The Key Of Life tour Stevie took a moment to express his feelings on the recent events that are currently dividing our country. 

“Can you believe that in one month, two grand juries, secret grand juries, declined to indict two policemen for the killing of two black men? I just don’t understand that,” stated Wonder.  Stevie briefly spoke on the tragedies while he smoothly transitioned into one of his classic songs, “Living For The City.” 

As Stevie concluded his powerful speech he added, “I do understand that something is wrong, real wrong, and we as family, Americans, all of us of all colors, need to fix it with a quickness, real soon. I love you; I really love you, and know that. And this is why this song is unfortunately still relevant today.”
