What singer wrote and recorded 1964's "A Change Is Gonna Come," a song about his own suffering and the struggles of African-Americans?

"A Change Is Gonna Come" was first featured on Cooke's album Ain't That Good News. The song was inspired by a number of incidents in Cooke's life, most notably when he and his entourage were turned away from a whites-only Louisiana hotel. Cooke felt driven to compose a song about his own suffering and the struggles of people around him, as well as about the Civil Rights Movement.
