Pete Seeger: The Power of Song

documentary

This one blew me away. Such a fine man. Such a fine life spent in the cause of justice and decency. He faced hatred and anger with song and his basic goodness and stands in my mind as the closest example we have of a real American hero.

Even though he, like the rest of us, has suffered through the monstrousness of Reagan/Bush/Bush and the seeming triumph of corporate militarism, his light shines through these dark times giving us some sense of hope.

A great man. He has made the world a better place for his presence.
