Eventually, the words were paired with the now-familiar tune.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The song took particularly deep root in the Black church, where it’s been sung across generations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Now 'Amazing Grace' for us, is a traditional song,\" said \u003ca href=\"https://www.hmfgospel.org/dr-douroux\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Margaret Pleasant Douroux\u003c/a>, a gospel music composer and longtime member and choir director of the Greater New Bethel Baptist Church in Inglewood, California. \"It has always been a landmark for Black America and Black church.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Douroux, who founded the \u003ca href=\"https://www.hmfgospel.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Heritage Music Foundation\u003c/a>, was in the audience the day Aretha Franklin recorded her iconic take on “Amazing Grace” in Los Angeles in 1972.

It's total grace.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Collins released a landmark version of “Amazing Grace” in 1970, while still battling her addiction, and went on to rerecord the song last year — on the 50th anniversary — backed up by a virtual choir.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://youtu.be/Oav8CkGpcwA\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It's a powerful song which reaches all kinds of people of every race, denomination, religious persuasion, color, character,\" said Collins. \"It doesn't matter who you are. Once you hear 'Amazing Grace,' it sticks.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many artists with California connections have taken the song in completely new directions, like drag theater performer \u003ca href=\"https://taylormac.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Taylor Mac.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mac has unhappy memories of being forced to sing the hymn at Christian Science church as a kid growing up in Stockton.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I can't say that I was particularly drawn to the song at all,\" Mac said. But over time, it grew on the performer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dressed in teetering patent-red platform heels, a fantastical headpiece festooned with balloons and a glittering hoop dress, Mac performed a minor-key version as the opening number in a mammoth stage production chronicling the history of American popular music.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth] The critically acclaimed show, \"The 24-Decade History of Popular Music,\" debuted right before the 2016 presidential election and toured the U.S. through much of Trump's presidency.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mac made a video of \"Amazing Grace\" on the streets of San Francisco.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://youtu.be/JHSaoMVqta4\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It became kind of a prayer for grace for the country,\" Mac recalled. \"It stopped being about God for me. In the Trump years, it became this beautiful way to start the show and say, 'Hey, we're all praying for actual grace now.' \"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Turner, the music journalist, said “Amazing Grace” has such universal appeal, and can see the song, with its call for redemption, becoming a hallmark of Biden’s time in office.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>'A Song You Can Sing Together'\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>\"America is now in a situation where there needs to be healing and there needs to be things that both sides agree on,\" Turner said, pointing to this tumultuous era, which has included racially motivated killings, one of the most contentious elections in U.S. history, the recent assault on the nation’s Capitol, and a deadly, ongoing pandemic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"There needs to be a song that you can sing together,\" Turner said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>President Biden's inauguration speech was at heart a call for togetherness.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Through civil war, the Great Depression, world war, 9/11, through struggle, sacrifice and setbacks, our better angels have always prevailed,\" he said. “In each of these moments, enough of us have come together to carry all of us forward. And we can do that now. History, faith and reason show the way, the way of unity.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It makes sense that singer Garth Brooks called on the audience to join in during his performance of \"Amazing Grace\" at the inauguration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m going to ask you to sing this last verse with me. Not just the people here. But the people at home. At work. As one. United,\" Brooks said before launching into the song once more.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Of course, all of us singing \"Amazing Grace\" together won’t by itself solve this country’s problems.

It also makes an exception if the video or audio has a clear disclaimer that digital monkey business has been performed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Libel and forgeries are hardly new phenomena in politics. But as technological developments make it increasingly difficult to sort fake from real news, and to crack down on the dissemination of false information once it finds its way online, lawmakers like Berman are struggling to find some way to fight back.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I don’t want to wake up after the 2020 election, like we did in 2016, and say, ‘dang, we should have done more,’” said Berman.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But there is at least one limit on what can be done. The First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution guarantees the right to free speech — making it unclear whether a ban on convincing video forgeries would pass constitutional muster.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The American Civil Liberties Union of California, the California News Publishers Association and the California Broadcasters Association all oppose the bill on First Amendment grounds.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The bill cleared a hurdle on Thursday by winning approval from a Senate committee.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the hearing, Whitney Prout, staff attorney with the publishers’ association, called the bill “an ineffective and frankly unconstitutional solution that causes more problems than it solves.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size='medium' align='right' citation=' Electronic Frontier Foundation analysts']'Congress must tread carefully if it seeks to address the actual problem without censoring lawful and socially valuable speech — such as parodies and satires.'[/pullquote]She warned that, if enacted into law, it could discourage social media users from sharing any political content online, lest it be a fake and they be held legally liable. Another possible consequence, she said, is that campaigns plaster every attack ad with a deepfake disclosure to shield themselves from lawsuits, leaving the voting public even more confused.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The law surrounding the First Amendment really has evolved in a pre-internet world,” said Louis Tompros, a partner at the law office of WilmerHale in Boston and a lecturer at Harvard. The enactment of laws such as the one Berman proposes would “force the courts to really reconcile the whole body of First Amendment law with these new phenomenon.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The method behind “deepfakery” is technically sophisticated, but its producers don’t need to be. These days, anyone with access to a YouTube tutorial and enough computing power can produce their own videographic forgery.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=forum_2010101870062,science_1943376]Hence the proliferation of so many comedic or satirical deepfakes. Some strive to make a point, like the one created by Peele or a more recent depiction of Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg \u003ca href=\"https://www.washingtonpost.com/video/business/technology/mark-zuckerberg-deepfake-will-remain-online/2019/06/12/4171916e-a25b-4842-9bf6-f5d07512055a_video.html?utm_term=.efa39a49afbc\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">bragging about stealing your data\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Others are just internet-grade goofy.

(When shown the fake on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, Buscemi seemed remarkably unfazed: “I’ve never looked better,” he said).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the technology has, of course, been used for seedier purposes. The most popular application seems to be pornographic, with online forgers digitally grafting the faces of Hollywood celebrities onto the bodies of adult film actresses — without the knowledge or consent of either party.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the case of Rana Ayyub, an Indian investigative journalist, the use was even more sinister. Last year, a fake sex video “starring” Ayyub was leaked online in an act of apparent retribution for her reporting that was sharply critical of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his Hindu nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party.

Rather than use machine-learning algorithms, its producers opted for the more primitive technological methods of slowing down the footage and raising the pitch of the voice. But it still elicited a wave of bipartisan angst about the threat that forged video poses to our democratic institutions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Earlier this month, Florida GOP Sen. Marco Rubio characterized “very realistic fake videos” as a national security threat akin to aircraft carriers and nuclear weapons. And at a House hearing earlier this month, Democratic Congressman Adam Schiff from Burbank warned of the possible “nightmarish scenario” in which “a state-backed actor creates a deepfake video of a political candidate accepting a bribe.” Just as worrisome, he said, the mere existence of deepfakes allows bad actors to more convincingly dismiss real information as fake.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/Heritage/status/1020289722634076160\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But some civil liberties groups are concerned that lawmakers will overreact.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Congress must tread carefully if it seeks to address the actual problem without censoring lawful and socially valuable speech — such as parodies and satires,” analysts with the Electronic Frontier Foundation wrote in response to the hearing. The Foundation said they are reviewing Berman’s bill and do not yet have a position on it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tompros said it would be difficult to craft a law banning socially harmful deepfakes without sweeping up more traditional forms of political speech.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Is it a ‘deceptive audio or visual media’ if, for example, I take a ten minute very nuanced policy speech and I clip out five seconds in the middle where it sounds like the person is taking an extreme position?” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lArPEDS0GTA\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Under that standard, a significant share of attack ads produced over the last half-century would be illegal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, Berman’s proposal is much narrower than past legislative attempts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2017, Assemblyman Ed Chau, a Democrat from Monterey Park, introduced a bill that would have banned the online dissemination of any false information about a political candidate.
