Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  Ko ia te Kuini o te Wairua, ā, ko rātau te hunga nui ake i te ao tōrangapū. Engari ahakoa he tokotoru kore pea, i huihui a Eric Holder rāua ko Reverend Al Sharpton ki te āwhina ki te whakanui i te rā whānau 73 o Aretha Franklin i te pō o te Rātapu. I uru atu te kaitohutohu ture o mua me te kaitautoko mo nga tika tangata ki nga manuhiri mai i te ao puoro mo te huihuinga a-tau i te hotera o Ritz Carlton o New York. Panuku ki raro mō te ataata. I honoa a Aretha Franklin e te U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder me te Rev Al Sharpton i tana huihuinga ra whanau 73 i New York City. Ko Mr Holder rāua ko Rev Sharpton he hoa tata o te kaiwaiata. Ko Mr Holder rāua ko tana wahine a Sharon Malone, ā, ko Rev Sharpton rāua ko Aisha McShaw. Ko te kaiwaiata, kaore nei i te 73 noa i te Wenerei, kua rongonui mo te whakahaere i nga huihuinga whetu hei whakanui i tona ra whanau. I te whakanui i te pō o inanahi, i pupuhi a Miss Franklin, i mau nei i tētahi kākahu hiriwa kanapa, i ngā kānara i runga i tana keke, ā, i whakawhiwhia ki tētahi waiata o 'Happy Birthday' i waiatahia e te kaiwaiata o Labelle, a Sarah Dash. He hoa roa a Miss Franklin ki a Mr Holder rāua ko Reverend Sharpton. I te tīmatanga o tēnei tau, i waiata ia i tētahi huihuinga hei whakapuaki i a Mr Holder e whakarere ana i tana tūranga hei Attorney General. I mau te kaiwaiata i te kākahu hiriwa me te koti i a ia e hikoi ana i te kāpeti whero i a ia e haere ana ki tana huihuinga. I waiata a ia i te 'America The Beautiful' hei mihi ki a Mr Holder, i tino kitea te nekehanga o te tohu. E ai ki ngā pūrongo, i a ia e whakatata atu ana ki te paepae ki te waiata, ka rere atu a Perehitini Barack Obama ki tona taha, ā, ka hoatu ki a ia tētahi paepae e mau ana i ngā kupu, 'Tūmau, Kuini.' E whakaarohia ana kua piri ia ki a Mr Holder me tana wahine a Sharon. E pupuhi ana a Aretha Franklin i nga rama i runga i tana keke ra whanau me te awhina o te kairipoata korero a Mr Holder a Tamron Hall me te kaiwhakahaere puoro a Clive Davis. I tēnei wā, i kitea a Miss Franklin i te wā whakamutunga e noho tahi ana me Rev Sharpton i tana pōti rā whānau i te 60 o Oketopa i mua, i reira i whakaahua ai ia i a ia hei 'tangata i roto i nga tangata'. I tētahi wā...
I whakahaerehia e te kaiwaiata tana huihuinga huritau 73 i te hotera o Ritz Carlton o New York. Ko ngā manuhiri ko te US Attorney General Eric Holder me Rev Al Sharpton. I pupuhihia e ia nga rama i runga i te keke i te wa e waiata ana nga kaihautu ki te ra whanau hari.
