Taylor’s song “Your God” is thought provoking. The New York Times called it “a denunciation of racism and the slave trade.” Here’s the opening passage:
When the boatmen stole the Africans

When they roped them and they shackled them
Was he with them in the hold?
Was the ocean moon so beautiful
That it brought him to his knees?
What did your God see?
