Pete Seeger

Is a picture worth a thousand words? Is it the same with a song? Is it worth a thousand pictures? Who can deny the powerful images evoked from Songs of Struggle and Protest – a forte of common humanity? A song can paint optimism, commitment, and a desire for peace, freedom, and the right to live without …Your Millions, Mister. A piece of art sings in the minds of thousands. It shouts injustices to the skies in loud color and questions Where Have All the Flowers Gone? in broad strokes. A government of placid leaders who Turn, Turn the other cheek and project calm and concern. Ask your children, What Did You Learn in School Today? Lord, save us from ourselves. From My Muddy Stream all the way To My Old Brown Earth, I see inspiration and admiration for nature. I see the waste and cry to the skies, God Bless the Grass! There is strength, passion, and nonconformity in picture and in song. The one should affect us, touch us, stir us, and fill us, Step By Step.
