You've Got To Be Carefully Taught, 1949 Rodgers and Hammerstein, James Taylor Version
"You've Got to Be Carefully Taught" is a show tune from the 1949 Rodgers and Hammerstein musical South Pacific.
South Pacific received scrutiny for its commentary regarding relationships between different races and ethnic groups. In particular, "You’ve Got to Be Carefully Taught" was subject to widespread criticism, judged by some to be too controversial or downright inappropriate for the musical stage. Sung by the character Lieutenant Cable, the song is preceded by a line saying racism is "not born in you! It happens after you’re born..."
This version is from James Taylor's latest album American Standards.
This classic is dedicated to @Paulieworld !!!

Brilliant performance. Brilliant song, brilliant message, from a most unlikely source! Who knew a Broadway musical in 1949 was a civil rights beacon? Kind of reminds me of this:
Thank you, Rene. That’s a beautiful song, expertly interpreted. You have such a beautiful voice and your delivery is perfect. This is something that more folks need to hear and think about. I hope it’s not too late. Keep the faith!

Very nice post, and I love this.
Education is a fabulous thing, and this video is effective.
Thank you @Svetlovska !!!
You are so appreciated!~
Amazing performance, the fingerpicking is excellent and the vocals are outstanding as always.
This beautiful song was definitely controversial for the time because it confronted the beliefs of society of that day and age. The song was definitely ahead of its time, and yet it's still poignant and relevant in today's society.
And you delivered yet another brilliant performance and did this song great justice! Just a wonderful person and his guitar.
May God keep blessing you and your family mate.

A great message in a simple but powerful performance.
Great job Rene.
Way ahead of its time… Wikipedia tells us
‘Rodgers and Hammerstein risked the entire South Pacific venture to include the song in the production. After the show's debut, it faced legislative challenges regarding its decency and supposed Communist agenda’
Good for R&H!
And a great job by you Rene in spoiling us with this beautiful interpretation 🙏
