White Cane Day 2010



Description:
Except for one scene with adults, the video shows children who are blind or visually impaired, ages X to Y.
The song is "You're the Voice"


Intro music:
In a school hallway, a young girl with a cane grins while a young boy dances and jumps up and down, twirling and pointing his cane.

"We have the chance to turn the pages over"
a photograph shows 4 kids grinning, 3 are holding canes

"We can write what we want to write,
We gotta make ends meet, before we get much older"
On a playground, 3 kids swagger toward us with their canes in rhythm with their feet

"We're all someone's daughter
We're all someone's son"
Two kids lipsync the words with passion

"How long can we look at each other
Down the barrel of a gun?"
a photograph of a child standing with his cane proudly on top of a ____ while two other children climb on the ____ with their canes.

"You're the voice, try and understand it
Make a noise and make it clear"
3 women smile and side-step together right and left while tapping their canes in rhythm side to side, turn around and touch the ground, then stand proudly with hands on hips

Oh-o-o-o, whoa-o-o-o
We're not gonna sit in silence
We're not gonna live with fear
Oh-o-o-o, whoa-o-o-o

This time, we know we all can stand together
With the power to be powerful
Believing we can make it better
We're all someone's daughter
We're all someone's son
How long can we look at each other
Down the barrel of a gun?

You're the voice, try and understand it
Make a noise and make it clear
Oh-o-o-o, whoa-o-o-o
We're not gonna sit in silence
We're not gonna live with fear
Oh-wo-wo-wo, whoa-o-o-o

ooooh We're all someone's daughter
We're all someone's son
How long can we look at each other
Down the barrel of a gun?

You're the voice, try and understand it
Make a noise and make it clear
Oh-o-o-o, whoa-o-o-o
We're not gonna sit in silence
We're not gonna live with fear
Oh-o-o-o, whoa-o-o-o (X3)


We're not gonna sit in silence
We're not gonna live with fear
