"X" is a protest song that became a key anthem of the African-
American Civil Rights Movement. It is widely believed that the title and
structure of the song are derived from an early gospel song by African-
American composer Charles Albert Tindley .
The song "X" was published in the September 1948 issue of People's
Songs Bulletin (a publication of People's Songs, an organization of
which Pete Seeger was the director and guiding spirit). It appeared in
the bulletin as a contribution of and with an introduction by Zilphia
Horton, then music director of the Highlander Folk School of
Monteagle, Tennessee, an adult education school that trained union
organizers. In it, she wrote that she had learned the song from
members of the CIO Food and Tobacco Workers Union: "It was first
sung in Charleston, S.C. ... Its strong emotional appeal and simple
dignity never fails to hit people. It sort of stops them cold silent.“
It was her favorite song and she taught it to countless others, including
Pete Seeger, who included it in his repertoire, as did many other activist
singers, such as Frank Hamilton and Joe Glazer, who recorded it in
1950.
It is a song we all have grown up with .Id X
