Blackbird

Blackbird-african americans
Broken wings- their struggles
light at the end of the dark night- hope

This song symbolizes desegregation that was going on at the time. THe blackbird is a literal symbol for african americans and isn't hard to get. The broken wings show the struggles and hardships that these people had to go through to get what they wanted; equality. The light shows hope for the equality in the future.
