We got to spend the day together with Naya’s voice blasting through the speakers, surrounded by that voice! Ugh, her voice. There’s just nothing better.
Thank you for letting us take over your studio, harmonysamuels and thanks for leading the way, msamberpriley. We wanted to handle “Prayer For The Broken” with care, making sure not 1 vocal of Naya’s was touched. When msamberpriley went into the booth and sang a harmony in the second verse we all stopped and looked at each other - hearing them together again, for a brief moment the smiles we’d slapped on to get through the day broke. The world is a better place because Naya was in it and we all got to bear witness to her incredible gifts.
Thank you to isaachasson1 & lindyrobbins123 who made such an incredible song and have agreed to donate all of their proceeds to alexandriahousela. May her legacy live on in all of us and each time you blast her music, watch a scene, or share a memory ♥️ Merry Snixxmas! Links in bio to stream and to donate to alexandriahousela!
A HUGE thank you to all of those who donated their time and talents to make this all come together:

NBA中曾經的種族歧視
NBA提供美國整體歧視軌跡的縮影。NBA於一九五○年整合後，黑人球星軍團就迅速在聯盟中湧現。到了一九六五年，十位全明星賽的先發球員裡有六位是黑人；一九七五年，球迷首次獲得全明星球隊的投票權，前五名得票數最高的球員中就有四個是黑人。在一九五四年到一九七○年間，黑人在聯盟中的勞動力比例從四．六％成長為五四．三％。8但是對於逐漸占據主導地位的黑人球員而言，並非一切盡如人意。有許多研究，包括經濟學家傑洛德．斯卡利(Gerald Scully )與羅倫斯．卡恩(Lawrence Kahn)進行的研究，點出長久以來的薪資歧視問題：以同樣的薪資程度來說，NBA的黑人球員明顯比白人球員表現出色；而表現與白人球員相當的黑人球員，較容易遭到球隊開除。9從另一個角度而言，一九八五年的黑人籃球球員，和白人隊友相比，必須贏得更多分數或搶下更多籃板，才能獲得同樣的薪資或是保有工作。

NBA所有三十支球隊，是否都囂張地在種族主義陰謀之下，彼此串謀支付黑人球員較低的薪資？並非如此。一九八五年的確可能會有一些NBA球隊老闆厭惡黑人--史特林在一九八一年買下快艇隊，但他們也可能是在回應球迷的種族偏好。幾項經濟學研究，雖然在具體細節上有些許差異，卻都發現主場球隊的白人球員越多，一九八○年代的球迷就越可能進場觀看籃球比賽。
研究人員也發現，白人球員並非平均分散在各隊，而是聚集在白人球迷較多的市場。因此，即使球迷沒有真的歧視，聯盟總經理在籌組球隊時的方式，也彷彿球迷會有所歧視，在有較多白人球迷的城市裡看重白人球員，白人球員也集中在以白人為主的城市：比爾．華頓(Bill Walton )效力於波特蘭拓荒者隊(PortlandTrail Blazers )；約翰．史塔克頓(John Stockton )在爵士隊；柏德、凱文．麥克海爾(KevinMcHale )、約翰．哈維契克(John Havlicek )與戴夫．寇文斯(Dave Cowens )，全都在種族主義惡名昭彰的塞爾提克隊，以此類推。
種族歧視會付出的代價
不過，對於種族的態度已經改變。雖然在現今的美國，實際生活中偶爾還是可以觀察到種族歧視，但在數十年前卻更明目張膽。舉例來說，美國對於跨種族婚姻的認可大致呈現線性成長，從一九五八年的四％到近年來已將近九○％。
隨著種族隔離政策遺留下來的社會結構與思維模式褪去，邏輯上認為在NBA中的歧視也會消退。大致上來說，確實有所消退。若干經濟學家重新檢視一九九○年代球季的資料，幾乎沒有發現薪資歧視證據。在一九九○年代中期，黑人球員的薪資大致上與能力相當的白人球員一樣，在解僱球員歧視的研究裡也有同樣的發現。
現今的研究已經斷定，在NBA中不再存有薪資歧視。我不知道是否有任何正式的測驗，檢視球迷是否依然偏好歧視，但是一項關於最近開幕日球員名單的簡略調查發現，球隊有多少白人球迷與選手之間並不相關。多年來，勇士隊、密爾瓦基公鹿隊(MilwaukeeBucks )、曼菲斯灰熊隊(Memphis Grizzlies )、洛杉磯湖人隊(Los Angeles Lakers )及聖東安尼奧馬刺隊(San Antonio Spurs )，是所有球隊中白人球員比例最高的球隊，但它們主場城市的人口族群組合是多元的，從以白人為主(密爾瓦基)到大部分為拉丁裔(洛杉磯與聖安東尼奧)，或是亞裔(舊金山｜奧克蘭)族群，再到在聯盟中的黑人城市(曼菲斯)。
這股趨勢反映獲得諾貝爾獎(Nobel Prize )得主，經濟學家蓋瑞．貝克(Gary Becker )提出的歧視理論基礎，他假設市場會矯正歧視：較不願意僱用少數族群���公司，最終會被其他只以僱用人才為主的公司淘汰。隨著球隊發現忽略黑人球員或支付黑人球員低薪，對它們在勝負欄上的損失大於吸引有偏見球迷的幫助，球隊便會停止歧視。換句話說，對球迷來說(同時對球隊的底線也是)，贏球比球員名單的種族組成更重要。即使是史特林的快艇隊，在二○一三年到二○一四年賽季時也只有一位簽約的白人球員。歧視的消退反映根本社會態度的改變。如果球迷仍像一九七○年一樣抱持偏見，明智的球隊老闆可能會放棄一些勝場數，僱用更多的白人球員。但是隨著球迷的思維變得更開放，對懷有偏見的球隊老闆而言，繼續沉浸在自身歧視中的代價越來越高。總體來說，競爭幫助提高黑人球員的薪資與就業保障。
運動員薪資的大幅成長，也讓歧視的成本跟著上漲。其他的環境(例如，一個族群的警察在以另一個族群為主的城市維持治安)，通常沒有具有競爭力的市場來驅除歧視。因此，雖然有良好的證據顯示，競爭與經濟學可以逐漸消除歧視，但貝克的理論卻可能遭到誤用，作為政府對歧視置之不理的藉口。不過至少在一些聯盟裡，金錢與贏得球賽為第一優先，而這對歷史上代表性不足的群體中，那些有天賦的運動員來說是一件好事。至於灰狼隊非比尋常的白人球員名單，導致相關的競爭力與負面關注，可能正因如此，該球隊很快看起來開始更像其他聯盟中的球隊。在二○一五年到二○一六年賽季時，灰狼隊有六二％的黑人球員；在二○二○年到二○二一年時，甚至超越聯盟的平均水準，有八○％的黑人球員。
灰狼隊的種族組成可能阻礙了球隊的發展，但這不是唯一的原因，因為即使球隊之後在名單中加入黑人球員，表現還是很糟。雖然我們沒有強而有力的證據證明，種族組成會傷害灰狼隊，但是經濟學家斯特凡．西曼斯基(Stefan Szymanski )使用來自英國職業足球的廣大資料集後發現，「黑人球員比例低於平均的球隊，往往會有較差的表現。」因此，儘管灰狼隊的例子可能說明，在現代職業運動極度競爭的世界裡，球隊老闆不抱偏見的行為並不足以讓球隊贏得比賽，但是足球界及其他方面的資料都顯示，不存有偏見的球隊編組是維持競爭力不可或缺的要素。

Top 9 songs with better glee cover than original
Glee was a musical comedy-drama which aired from May 19, 2009, to March 20, 2015. It starred a lot of Broadway stars like Lea Michele, Matthew Morrison, Jenna Ushkowitz, Darren Criss and many more. The main cast also included Cory Monteith, Naya Rivera, Dianna Argon, Kevin McHale, Amber Riley, Chris Colfer, Heather Morris, Jane Lynch, Jayma Mays, Harry Shum Jr, Mark Sailing and the cast kept growing. They have guest starring from a lot of big stars like Idina Menzel, Neil Patrick Harris, Kristen Chenoweth, Jonathan Groff and many more. Having all new faces for the show (some of them had had small roles previously but no one was a big star yet), the show creators were surprised at its popularity. The show tackled a lot of societal issues like teen pregnancy, bullying, hate against LGBTQ+ and issues faced by them, sexuality, race and many more. The show mostly covered songs that were already sung by other songs (well they did take permission of the original people before featuring the song). As is the case, there are some songs which sound better in cover form than the original. So here is a list of glee songs that I think sound better than the original version (THIS IS MY OPINION):
1.Don’t Stop Believing
This song was originally performed by the band Journey in 1981 and is a rock song. It was not a hit at first but now it is considered as one of the signature songs for the band. In glee it is performed by Lea Michele, Cory Monteith, Chris Colfer, Kevin McHale, Jenna Ushkowitz and Amber Riley. This song is considered as an anthem song for the show as this was the beginning of an era. The song has been performed a total of six time with the main six being in all of them (Except one performance missing Cory). It was first featured at the end of the pilot episode and well I think the original is good but the glee cover gives it a more crispiness and more energy than the original song. This song is one of my favorites from the show.
2.It’s Not Right but It’s Okay
This song was originally performed by Whitney Houston. I know you must be thinking how could a Whitney Houston cover song be better than the original? Well, it is not better but it is an extremely amazing cover of the song. In glee, it is performed by Darren Criss and the New Direction(the choir group’s name) as background. Darren’s voice gives the song more energy and it sounds bolder in his voice and for some reason, I felt like I was the one who was cheated on rather than Darren’s character whenever I hear this cover (Even though I don’t have a boyfriend). This cover also has a little more upbeat music than the original.
3. Jessie's Girl
This song was originally performed by Rick Springfield in 1981. In glee it is performed by Cory Monteith. According to BTS footage from the studio of the show, Cory thought that it was one of his best performances till that time (he has had a lot of amazing performances since). The background for the song to be featured in the show is that the girl he likes, Rachel (Lea Michele), is with an older boy named Jesse (Jonathan Groff) and there he sings the song for Rachel. It is a sweet performance with a little funny aspect to it as the girl he likes is really Jesse’s girl. As for the song, Cory’s voice in this makes me want to tap my feet and be Jessie’s Girl!
4.Give Up the Funk
This was originally performed by the band Parliament in 1975. In glee, it is performed by all the cast members (the New Direction). The original is not as funky as the cover. The cover is funkier and more energetic than the original. The cover makes me wanna bust a move but the original doesn’t. Plus we get a treat of listening a deep Chris Colfer voice (the raps in the start and end).
5.Teenage Dream
This was originally performed by Katy Perry. In glee, it is performed by Darren Criss and the warblers. It is the first song to feature Darren in the series. I like the glee version of this song because it is acapella and Darren made the song his own. I couldn’t have thought of a better first song for Blaine and I feel in love with him through this song. He performs this song again for Kurt in season 4 on piano which is also very good. (the gif is from the first episode; after a couple of minutes he performs the song, Blaine not Kurt)
6.Last Christmas
This was originally performed by Wham! in 1985. In glee, it is performed by Lea Michele and Cory Monteith. Although this song gets covered every Christmas, I like the glee version (and Taylor Swift version). As lea has a soprano vocal range, meaning that she can see similar an opera singer like can carry a note for a longer time than normal, she carries the notes for the song beautifully. And with Cory’s voice mixing with hers, the song seems magical!
7.Total Eclipse of The Heart
This song was originally performed by Bonnie Tyler in 1983. In glee, it is performed by Lea Michele, Cory Monteith, Jonathan Groff and Mark Sailling. The original song is not very good, the voice of the singer is not good in the song (I think she had had a throat surgery and started recording the song before complete rest, but I don’t know). All the covers of this song are good but I particularly like the glee version because it has four people singing it and if you listen closely, you can differentiate when which of the boys is singing. Their voices mix very well. Jonathan and lea’s voices, and Cory and lea’s voices mix perfectly. With Mark, it is okayish.
8.Touch A Touch A
This was originally performed by Susan Sarandon in the movie The Rocky Horror Show in 1975. In glee, it is performed by Jayma Mays. The glee version is more fun to listen as it is more upbeat and the original sounds a little monotonous.
9.We Found Love
This was originally performed by Rihanna featuring Calvin Harris in 2011. In glee, it is performed by the New Direction. As in the official music video for the song, it shows drug addiction and violence. Though, the music video is good, I don’t think anyone would have thought that this song could be used in a proposal of a high school teacher to his girlfriend (guidance counselor) and is sung by a couple of high school kids in a swimming pool! the glee performance gave the song a whole new meaning.
So, hope you do check these songs out see for yourself if I am right!!!
