Bob Marley - Redemption Song

Canción muy popular de Bob, la cual queda muy bien con el uke.

La canción insta a los oyentes a "emanciparse de la esclavitud mental", porque "solo nosotros podemos liberar nuestras mentes". Estas líneas fueron tomadas de un discurso dado por Marcus Garvey (activista y periodista Jamaiquino) en Nueva Escocia.
