Her father was the son of Italian immigrants and her mother English. She claimed she was born on a Cree reservation in Canada and raised by a white couple in Massachusetts who adopted her. In fact, they were her birth parents.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: helvetica;">One activist called her a "Pretendian" - a Pretend Indian.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: helvetica;">Here's her birth certificate, showing she was born in Massachusetts, not Canada:</span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibFiHXwODseIwrp84C8ziDJ40ZIerWOczG_hynEsxHX_xncNMnFNfkQn2XGomP0SZGlR_n7c3aRxwRbNQEiYPHdMHUUSOHHHybt2aXBTm-nVu3gi3FZmts6pt38fa1LpNmRCwwVlkH2acTEMfQOj8Ueb9AhTrN5bi5_CEzw1BxfzUqfs_5xtk5J41jKGs/s1430/Screenshot%202023-11-02%20at%207.22.51%E2%80%AFAM.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1430" data-original-width="1038" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibFiHXwODseIwrp84C8ziDJ40ZIerWOczG_hynEsxHX_xncNMnFNfkQn2XGomP0SZGlR_n7c3aRxwRbNQEiYPHdMHUUSOHHHybt2aXBTm-nVu3gi3FZmts6pt38fa1LpNmRCwwVlkH2acTEMfQOj8Ueb9AhTrN5bi5_CEzw1BxfzUqfs_5xtk5J41jKGs/w464-h640/Screenshot%202023-11-02%20at%207.22.51%E2%80%AFAM.png" width="464" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: helvetica;">Buffy has said several times that she had no birth certificate and didn't know her birthday or who her birth parents were. Yet she did have a birth certificate that indicated her birth day and the names of her parents. When Buffy married Jack Nietzsche, she signed documents acknowledging she was born in Massachusetts in 1941 to the Santamaria family. Buffy once claimed her birth certificate and other official documents had been destroyed in a fire but there was no record of such a fire. One expert said this was a red flag regarding ethnic appropriation - shifting narratives. Also Buffy claimed at various times to be Algonquin, Micmac, and Cree. An expert pointed out that the three groups live far away from each other and no one could be part of all three groups.</span></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><span style="font-family: helvetica;

As one of the most prestigious awards in the global entertainment industry, it is a true recognition of the outstanding team who worked on my story – the true story of my life.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" /><br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />I’ve always believed it takes rain and sunshine to bring a rainbow. This great honour does indeed come after the rain – as I continue to absorb and process the recent attack on my character, life and legacy. It’s a deep wound to my inner child, but as an 82-year-old now, I’m strong – and these allegations do not shake me.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" /><br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />Now it is time for me to shine a light on the truth, my truth.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" /><br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />I have never lied about my identity. The more I’ve known, the more I’ve pieced together a sense of self from what information has been available to me.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" /><br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />What I know about my Indigenous ancestry I learned from my growing up mother, who was of Mi’kmaq heritage, and my own research later in life. My mother told me that I was adopted and that I was Native, but there was no documentation as was common for Indigenous children at the time.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" /><br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />When I grew up, I was adopted into a Cree family by Emile Piapot (son of Chief Piapot, Treaty 4 Adhesion signatory), and Clara Starblanket Piapot (daughter of Chief Starblanket, Treaty 4 signatory), in accordance with Cree law and customs. They were kind, loving, and proud to claim me as their own. I love my Piapot family and am so lucky to have them in my life.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" /><br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />I have always struggled to answer questions about who I am. For decades, I tried to find my birth parents and information about my background. Through that research what became clear, and what I’ve always been honest about: I don’t know where I’m from or who my birth parents are, and I will never know. Which is why, to be questioned in this way is painful, both for me, and for my two families I love so dearly.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" /><br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />My Indigenous identity is rooted in a deep connection to a community which has had a profound role in shaping my life and my work. For my entire life, I have championed Indigenous, and Native American causes when nobody else would, or had the platform to do so. I am proud to have been able to travel the world, sharing Indigenous stories. I have always tried to bridge gaps between communities and educate people to live in love and kindness.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" /><br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />This is my truth. And while there are many things I do not know; I have been proud to share my story – as I know it – throughout my life.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" /><br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />The attack on my character is full of mistakes and omissions. While I will not stoop to respond to every false allegation, I feel it is important to clarify two things.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" /><br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />First, the central proof used to question my identity is a story fabricated by my abuser and repeated by two members of my estranged family I don’t even know. This has been incredibly re-traumatizing for me and unfair to all involved. It hurts me deeply to discover that my estranged family grew up scared of me and thinking these lies because of a letter I sent intended to protect me from further abuse from my brother. I want to be clear, I do not blame them. They, of course, want to believe their father. I have evidence I was sexually abused by my brother, but I can’t tolerate discomforting his children even more. I wish them only the best and hope they move forward from this and find peace, as I am trying to do.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" /><br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />The second is my “birth certificate”. As many Indigenous people know, and the National Sixties Scoop Healing Foundation of Canada has stated, it was common for birth certificates of Indian children to be “created” by western governments after they were adopted or taken away from their families. So it was quite shocking to me to hear a city clerk say she had 100% confidence in its authenticity. I have never known if my birth certificate was real. I have used it because it was the only document I’ve had my whole life. I’ve heard from countless people with similar stories – who do not know where they are from and feel victimized by these allegations and one-sided reporting as I do.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" /><br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />Most importantly, this is my life – I am not a piece of paper. I am a product of both my families and all my experiences in this world.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" /><br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />If you are a pure-blood documented something, I’m glad for you. It’s awesome and beautiful to hear you speak your lineage, history and genealogy. But even if your documentation says you’re racially pure, you might miss the point. Being an “Indian” has little to do with sperm tracking and colonial record keeping: It has to do with community, culture, knowledge, teachings, who claims you, who you love, who loves you, and who’s your family.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" /><br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />With respect and love,</span></p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; caret-color: rgb(117, 117, 117); margin: 0px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: helvetica;">Buffy Sainte-Marie</span></p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; caret-color: rgb(117, 117, 117); margin: 0px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: helvetica;"><br /></span></p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; caret-color: rgb(117, 117, 117); margin: 0px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: helvetica;">-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------</span></p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; caret-color: rgb(117, 117, 117); margin: 0px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: helvetica;"><br /></span></p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; caret-color: rgb(117, 117, 117); margin: 0px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: helvetica;"></span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="caret-color: rgb(34, 34, 34); color: #222222; font-family: "Open Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 1.625rem; line-height: 1.3;">Acting chief of Piapot calls for DNA test</h2><h2 dir="ltr" style="caret-color: rgb(34, 34, 34); color: #222222; font-family: "Open Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 1.625rem; line-height: 1.3;"><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large; font-weight: 300;"><a href="https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/saskatchewan/buffy-sainte-marie-website-1.7042481" target="_blank">Buffy Sainte-Marie's claims of Cree ancestry and birth on Sask.

Rocker Eric Clapton recently did a private concert at an L.A. mansion which raised $2 million for RFK Jr.'s anti-vaccine vanity campaign for President (of the United States). (Traitor nut job Tulsi Gabbard was also there.)</span><div><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: helvetica;">Clapton's long been suspect, since his 1976 drunken racist rant on stage during a concert where he voiced support for anti-immigrant sentiment in general and the fascist anti-immigrant politician Enoch Powell in particular. This despite Clapton's reputation being built over the bones of dozens of dead Black bluesmen.<br /></span><div><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: helvetica;">Then in 2020, Clapton and fellow kook Van Morrison hooked up for a couple of anti-vaccine songs in the middle of the COVID epidemic. Posing as rock rebels standing up for their rights and thinking for themselves, they actually caused social harm by encouraging vaccine hesitancy and resistance to masks, social distancing, lock downs, and mandatory COVID measures of any kind.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: helvetica;">Then suddenly it was announced that Eric Clapton would do a private concert as a fundraiser for anti-vaccine fanatic RFK Jr. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: helvetica;">Ultimately we found out that they raised $2 million - one million for RFK Jr.'s campaign and another for the PAC that backs him.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: helvetica;">We were saddened to hear that Stephen Stills joined him for the RFK Jr. fundraiser. He apparently performed with Clapton at the event, then also played at Clapton's Crossroads benefit on September 23. He could have joined his old pal Neil Young the same night at The Farm Aid benefit with Willie Nelson, John Mellencamp, Dave Matthews, and a surprise set by Bob Dylan.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><span>Someone suggested that Stills did not support RFK Jr and only came because Clapton asked him to support him musically. I wrote to Stills on Twitter and asked: "</span><span style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(15, 20, 25); color: #0f1419; font-size: 15px; white-space: pre-wrap;">Does Stephen Stills' appearance at a recent RFK Jr fundraiser with Eric Clapton in L.A. constitute an endorsement of RFK Jr and the anti-vaccine movement by Stephen?</span></span></div><div><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: helvetica;">There was no reply except that I was immediately blocked by Stills on Twitter. So I suppose the answer is "Yes", Stills DOES support Clapton, RFK Jr., and the anti-vaccine movement.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><br /></span></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJ1NCTGZRiVsv0UUFBZZcQc6-ZcVjZAs8b1cW31TyCxF3MMTTdPvrygweT3he7UHiaOnPVHpGPCTmW2qHWTVwmIjYWPjZ2i-J2DD5Dhr-KFOiOwtldbe7LNRcRksrviqC5-4h_0UltZD4YKniLrRs87CaOrOFh7vNXTwsPxVtrAuw8QtoTKuAXLHWeFWA/s1163/stills.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1163" data-original-width="749" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJ1NCTGZRiVsv0UUFBZZcQc6-ZcVjZAs8b1cW31TyCxF3MMTTdPvrygweT3he7UHiaOnPVHpGPCTmW2qHWTVwmIjYWPjZ2i-J2DD5Dhr-KFOiOwtldbe7LNRcRksrviqC5-4h_0UltZD4YKniLrRs87CaOrOFh7vNXTwsPxVtrAuw8QtoTKuAXLHWeFWA/w412-h640/stills.jpeg" width="412" /></a></div><br /></div><div><span style="font-family: helvetica;">I guess we can take a moment to reflect that while some rockers are willing to sell out to racism and harmful anti-science/anti-vaccine nonsense, others are trying to do the right thing and standing up for (and raising money for) good causes that help, rather than harm, the people.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><br /></span></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" class="BLOG_video_class" height="266" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/8TMSLBy8c9w" width="320" youtube-src-id="8TMSLBy8c9w"></iframe></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: helvetica;">Farm Aid was born in 1985. Dylan was performing at Live Aid in July 1985 for famine relief for Ethiopia. He made an off-hand comment about how it would be nice if someone would raise "a few million" for smaller American family farmers, who were endanger of losing their farms. That September Farm Aid was launched and has taken place annually since then. Dylan played the first Farm Aid with Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers, who Dylan had been touring with.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjXcyXqtS75tR5sM3izUIMP3t9gGDdA3t9u-Brjck4asiLyppIWaGontFJ-t9iYneSlY5UfUc64x0Ut0Zez2OPi5UZBnxB9s7eCUFMsUVsWCfQT133jsF6hvspGgOQirrAtlZo4LFXStcdm3Dk2bI14xcqClVb8635GL_3Rc319P5Uh-pzMlfFgKCd6eA4/s1490/Screenshot%202023-09-26%20at%207.47.59%20AM.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="972" data-original-width="1490" height="418" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjXcyXqtS75tR5sM3izUIMP3t9gGDdA3t9u-Brjck4asiLyppIWaGontFJ-t9iYneSlY5UfUc64x0Ut0Zez2OPi5UZBnxB9s7eCUFMsUVsWCfQT133jsF6hvspGgOQirrAtlZo4LFXStcdm3Dk2bI14xcqClVb8635GL_3Rc319P5Uh-pzMlfFgKCd6eA4/w640-h418/Screenshot%202023-09-26%20at%207.47.59%20AM.png" width="640" /></a></div><br /></div><span style="font-family: helvetica;">Dylan hadn't played another Farm Aid until this year. His performance - three classic songs - was unannounced. They simply walked on stage and started playing, people slowly realizing the guy in the middle playing guitar (Dylan mostly plays keyboards in concert these days) was Bob Dylan and he was accompanied by three Heartbreakers! Next to Dylan was master guitarist Mike Campbell, recently seen playing with Fleetwood Mac, as well as keyboard wizard Benmont Tench and drummer Steve Ferrone. They played "Maggie's Farm", "Positively Fourth Street", and "Ballad Of A Thin Man".</span></div><div><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: helvetica;">The crowd was left inspired and uplifted. Money and awareness was raised for a good cause.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: helvetica;">Compare and contrast this with Clapton raising money for the anti-science/anti-vaccine cause which makes people feel more afraid, angry, and divided and leaves some of the most vulnerable sitting ducks for deadly disease.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: helvetica;">If you've never heard Clapton's racist rant, you should check it out. It really reveals where he's coming from:</span></div><div><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><span style="color: #444444; font-size: 16px;"><br /></span></span></div><div><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><span style="color: #444444; font-size: 16px;">Clapton's 1976 racist rant: "Do we have any foreigners in the audience tonight? If so, please put up your hands. So where are you? Well, wherever you are, I think you should all just leave. Not just leave the hall, leave our country. I don’t want you here, in the room or in my country... </span><span style="color: #444444; font-size: 16px;">Listen to me, man! I think we should send them all back...</span></span><span style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: helvetica; font-size: 16px;">Stop Britain from becoming a black colony. Get the foreigners out. Get the w*gs out. Get the c**ns out. Keep Britain white!"</span></div></div><div><span style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: helvetica; font-size: 16px;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: helvetica; font-size: 16px;">Why do people find RFK Jr so objectionable?</span></div><div><span style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: helvetica; font-size: 16px;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: helvetica; font-size: 16px;">Well, he claims to be a Democrat, and comes, obviously, from a family synonymous with the storied history of Camelot, but his politics seem closer to Republican or perhaps Libertarian. Some might say Green. </span></div><div><span style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: helvetica; font-size: 16px;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: helvetica; font-size: 16px;">He rose to fame as an environmental lawyer but then morphed into an anti-vaccine conspiracy theorist who really rose to prominence (and record fund-raising levels) during the COVID crisis, during which he became one of the loudest anti-vaccine voices and perhaps the leading producer of COVID dis- and mis- information.</span></div><div><span style="background-color: white;

Kennedy Jr.:</strong> Which is what?<br /><strong>Bergen:</strong> Al-Qaeda attacked us on 9/11.<br /><strong>Kennedy:</strong> I don’t know what happened on 9/11. I mean, I understand what the official explanation is. I understand that there is dissent. I have not looked into it. I haven’t examined it. I’m not a good person to talk to about it.<br /><strong>Bergen: </strong>Well, I mean, so there’s doubt in your mind that al-Qaeda was responsible?<br /><strong>Kennedy:</strong> Well, I know, I don’t know, you know. I know there’s strange things that happened that don’t seem—<br /><strong>Bergen: </strong>What are the strange things?<br /><strong>Kennedy: </strong>Well, one of the buildings came down that wasn’t hit by a plane. So, you know, was it Building 7 or Building 10?<br /><strong>Bergen: </strong>That collapsed because two of the world’s biggest buildings collapsed on top of it.<br /><strong>Kennedy: </strong>No, they didn’t collapse on top of it. My offices were down there. My offices were closed—<br /><strong>Bergen:</strong> So one of the buildings, next to the Trade Center—<br /><strong>Kennedy: </strong>There’s pictures of it collapsing. There’s nothing collapsing on top of it. I mean, listen, I don’t want to argue any theories about this because all I’ve heard is questions. I have no explanation. I have no knowledge of it.

How could those fires cause a building to collapse? Per the agency: “The heat from the uncontrolled fires caused steel floor beams and girders to thermally expand, leading to a chain of events that caused a key structural column to fail. The failure of this structural column then initiated a fire-induced progressive collapse of the entire building.” FEMA <a class="link rapid-noclick-resp" data-rapid_p="11" data-v9y="1" data-ylk="slk:reached the same conclusion;elm:context_link;itc:0" href="https://www.fema.gov/pdf/library/fema403_ch5.pdf" rel="nofollow noopener" style="color: #003abc; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">reached the same conclusion</a> in its own report.</p><p style="font-size: 1.385em; line-height: 1.8; margin: 0px 0px 0.8em;">The official explanation around 9/11 is the latest in a string of narratives RFK has questioned. He’s been pushing misinformation about vaccines for years, advancing a theory in 2005 that that “government health agencies colluded with Big Pharma to hide the risks of thimerosal,” a preservative used in vaccines, which he asserted was linked to autism. (The<em> Lancet </em>study on which Kennedy’s argument relied was later <a class="link rapid-noclick-resp" data-rapid_p="12" data-v9y="1" data-ylk="slk:retracted;elm:context_link;itc:0" href="https://www.thelancet.com/pdfs/journals/lancet/PIIS0140-6736(97)11096-0.pdf" rel="nofollow noopener" style="color: #003abc; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">retracted</a>, as was the story Kennedy wrote, which was co-published by <em>Rolling Stone</em> and Salon.com.)</p><p style="font-size: 1.385em; line-height: 1.8; margin: 0px 0px 0.8em;">Since announcing his bid to challenge Joe Biden for the 2024 Democratic nomination earlier this year, Kennedy has casually claimed that Covid-19 was “<a class="link rapid-noclick-resp" data-rapid_p="13" data-v9y="1" data-ylk="slk:ethnically targeted;elm:context_link;itc:0" href="https://www.nytimes.com/2023/07/15/us/politics/rfk-jr-remarks-covid.html" rel="nofollow noopener" style="color: #003abc; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">ethnically targeted</a>” to spare Jewish and Chinese individuals.

Kennedy, was assassinated by the CIA.</p><p style="font-size: 1.385em; line-height: 1.8; margin: 0px 0px 0.8em;">Reflecting on Kennedy’s comments about 9/11 on his podcast, Bergen — one of the foremost authorities on al-Qaeda — noted that “I do my own research” is a fine attitude for a private citizen to have, but the approach suddenly becomes a lot less tenable when that person is president of the United States.</p><p style="font-size: 1.385em; line-height: 1.8; margin: 0px 0px 0.8em;">“Wanting to go to the source and dig into the details is a great sign of a curious mind,” Bergen said. “But the White House would be paralyzed if the president was always personally digging into all the underlying data to make his or her own assessments. As president you’ll have a thousand choices both large and small where you’re just gonna have to accept some expert opinions … Whether it’s the likely pace of unemployment or the likely course of a pandemic. We elect a president not because we expect one person to know absolutely everything. We expect them to know who to trust and how to make sound judgments.”</p><p style="font-size: 1.385em; line-height: 1.8; margin: 0px 0px 0.8em;">Under that criteria, Kennedy isn’t the only 2024 hopeful who would be disqualified.

Today such roots music is known as Americana.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: helvetica;">Besides folk, the folk revival included blues gospel, ragtime, and more. Embodied by the Newport Folk Festival in the mid-1960s, it included both African-American and European-American artists and others, mostly of the country rural variety.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: helvetica;">Perhaps one of the most interesting aspects of the revival was the "rediscoveries" of older African-American country blues artists who had recorded in the 1930s and then largely vanished until the 1960s when they were suddenly "rediscovered" and putting out albums, touring, playing festivals and TV shows for audiences of mostly young European-Americans. Some of the notable "rediscoveries" were <b>Son House, Skip James, Reverend Gary Davis, Mississippi John Hurt, Mississippi Fred McDowell, Elizabeth Cotten, Sleepy John Estes, Bukka White, Mance Lipscomb</b>, and <b>Lightnin' Hopkins.</b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: helvetica;">Chris Strachwitz and Mack McCormick traveled together in Texas to track down (and ultimately record) Lightnin' Hopkins and Mance Lipscomb.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><b>THIS ARTICLE IS STILL BEING EDITED.

A reminder to activists that the struggle carries on even though a strike may end in defeat, they’re also a handy maxim for anyone writing songs about the pressures that working people face. If you hope to inspire, rather than just providing a litany of problems, then it’s necessary for your song to offer some vision of redemption. While it is clearly beyond the scope of the songwriter to provide a cure for society’s ills, there is a role to play in calling out where you perceive the problem to lie and suggesting a possible way forward.</p><p class="dcr-19m3vvb" style="--source-text-decoration-thickness: 2px; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: GuardianTextEgyptian, "Guardian Text Egyptian Web", Georgia, serif; font-size: 1.0625rem; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant-caps: inherit; line-height: 1.4; margin: 0px 0px 14px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; word-break: break-word;">Joe Hill’s words came to mind when I heard Rich Men North of Richmond, a song posted on YouTube two weeks ago by Oliver Anthony, a young singer from Farmville, Virginia.

The lives of ordinary working people are being torn apart by the rich, he laments, but we can fix it if we cut welfare – and taxes too. Listening to the lyrics in that context, I came to understand why the song had <a data-link-name="in body link" href="https://www.theguardian.com/music/2023/aug/16/rich-men-north-of-richmond-oliver-anthony" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(220, 220, 220); border-bottom-style: solid; border-width: 0px 0px 1px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #6b5840; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant-caps: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">gone viral among rightwing figures in the US</a>. It’s a classic example of the divisive narrative that bosses have used to pit worker against worker since the days of Joe Hill. If the poor are fighting one another over racial hierarchy or cultural grievance, their anger will be directed away from the people responsible for their plight – the rich who exploit those in work and abandon those in need.</p><p class="dcr-19m3vvb" style="--source-text-decoration-thickness: 2px; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: GuardianTextEgyptian, "Guardian Text Egyptian Web", Georgia, serif; font-size: 1.0625rem; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant-caps: inherit; line-height: 1.4; margin: 0px 0px 14px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; word-break: break-word;">Anthony has said that he hoped the song would capture the voice of blue-collar workers who feel like they can’t get ahead, which is a laudable aim, but he doesn’t seem aware that there is a remedy for that problem, one which empowers working people. His home state Virginia is currently undergoing a resurgence in union activism. Local radio station WVTF reported last year that the push to organise is being led by young people around Anthony’s age.

Given I was writing in a country style, I thought of how Johnny Paycheck was able to express the anger of the working man without blaming those worse off than him in Take This Job and Shove It.

But most of all, I thought of <a data-component="auto-linked-tag" data-link-name="in body link" href="https://www.theguardian.com/music/woody-guthrie" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(220, 220, 220); border-bottom-style: solid; border-width: 0px 0px 1px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #6b5840; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant-caps: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">Woody Guthrie</a> who wrote: “I hate a song that makes you think you are not any good.

Interesting that he spread lies for money, just like his son Max Blumenthal, who lies professionally on behalf of Putin. Armchair psychologists will have to examine how the son of a Clinton insider lands up working for Putin, but, there it is.

New York Times Moscow bureau chief Walter Duranty whitewashed the Holodomor famine and Stalin's show trials time and time again, clearing the path for Stalin to be our ally instead of our rival. Those tankies back then could at </span><a style="color: #385898; cursor: pointer;" tabindex="-1"></a><span style="caret-color: rgb(5, 5, 5); color: #050505;">least claim to be supporting would socialism.

<br /><p><span style="font-family: helvetica;">"Now & Then" is a John Lennon solo demo he recorded in 1978 that the three (at the time) surviving Beatles worked on in 1995 for possible inclusion on Beatles Anthology series along with the other "new" songs, "Free As A Bird" and "Real Love". Reportedly work was scrapped in 1995 after two days in the studio with producer Jeff Lynne, largely because George Harrison didn't think there was enough to work with from the demo. It sounds fine now though, and the video is cool too. Many fans have heard of this song but never heard it. Until now.</span></p>thissmallplanethttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10675384019873419994noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2109002094226777218.post-71604771523733752222023-04-02T05:30:00.075-07:002023-04-17T04:12:07.478-07:00"Gotta Get To Peekskill": Woody Guthrie's 1949 Confrontation with the KKK at a Paul Robeson Concert Becomes a 2023 Dropkick Murphys Song<iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/e3CyJytl_eU" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe>
<br /><p><br /></p><p><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: medium;">From the forthcoming album from <b>Dropkick Murphys</b>. <i>Okemah Rising</i> [Dummy Luck Music] out May 12, 2023. Follow-up to last year's <i>This Machine Still Kills Fascists</i>, this also uses archival <b>Woody Guthrie</b> lyrics matched with contemporary tunes by Dropkicks Murphys. "Shipping Up To Boston" (used in "Gangs of New York" and last week as President Biden's walk-on musical at an event in Co. Mayo, Ireland) was the first time Dropkick Murphys drank from the Guthrie well. Famously, <b>Billy Bragg</b> and <b>Wilco</b> previously mined Guthrie's lyrics for <i>Mermaid Avenue</i> (1998) and <b>New Multitudes</b> (2006) (feat <b>Jim James</b> & <b>Jay Farra</b>r) did the same. Indeed, Woody lives, well into the 21st century. May the gods be praised!</span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjPi6-OGi8oMIXTeccvZ5p5bmGYYSLtCUZ8U8V9HdhwJ_0vN0ArwVZNMtxYPdpV2JyfebvstYBVk9IEwdpAigzavWsDhD6EGFxB9u-h6R2DZ0-8N6XutlSgKBbAWiF0Df4G9b7RBCu7zaUjxbIuUNm7kIatpXy9LqhwC3PIbgxCYLYIdnEwo0Yk5UbM/s267/woody.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em;

Referring to the growing tensions between the USA and the USSR, he stated:</span></p><blockquote style="border-left-style: none; caret-color: rgb(32, 33, 34); color: #202122; font-size: 14px; margin: 1em 0px; overflow: hidden; padding: 8px 32px;"><p style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: helvetica;">We in America do not forget that it was the backs of white workers from Europe and on the backs of millions of blacks that the wealth of America was built.

In the early stages of the Cold War and its accompanying wide anti-communist sentiments in the West, this statement was seen by many as very <a class="mw-redirect" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-American" style="background-image: none; color: #795cb2; text-decoration: none; word-wrap: break-word;" title="Anti-American">anti-American</a>. The local paper, the Peekskill <i>Evening Star</i>, condemned the concert and encouraged people to make their position on communism felt, but did not directly espouse violence. The riots were explicitly racist, with the rioters shouting racist terms for African Americans and Jews, burning crosses, and lynching effigies of Robeson both in Peekskill and in other areas of the United States</span></p><p style="caret-color: rgb(32, 33, 34); color: #202122; font-size: 14px; margin: 0.5em 0px;"><span style="font-family: helvetica;">The concert, organized as a benefit for the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Civil_Rights_Congress" style="background-image: none; color: #795cb2; text-decoration: none; word-wrap: break-word;" title="Civil Rights Congress">Civil Rights Congress</a>, was scheduled to take place on August 27 in Lakeland Acres, just north of Peekskill. Before Robeson arrived, a mob of locals attacked concert-goers with baseball bats and rocks. The local police arrived hours later and did little to intervene. Thirteen people were seriously injured, Robeson was lynched in effigy, and a cross was seen burning on an adjacent hillside. The concert was then postponed until September 4. Following the concert, request for Klan memberships from the Peekskill area numbered 748 persons.</span></p><p style="caret-color: rgb(32, 33, 34); color: #202122; font-size: 14px; margin: 0.5em 0px;"><span style="font-family: helvetica;">Robeson's longtime friend and Peekskill resident, Helen Rosen, who had agreed to collect Robeson at the train station, had heard on the radio that protesters were massing at the concert grounds. Robeson drove with Rosen and two others to the concert site and saw marauding groups of youngsters, a burning cross on a nearby hill and a jeering crowd throwing rocks]and chanting "Dirty Commie" and "Dirty Kikes." Robeson made more than one attempt to get out of the car and confront the mob but was restrained by his friends.</span></p><p style="caret-color: rgb(32, 33, 34); color: #202122; font-size: 14px; margin: 0.5em 0px;"><span style="font-family: helvetica;">The media were flooded with reactions and charges. The Joint Veterans Council of Peekskill refused to admit any involvement, describing its activities as a "protest parade...held without disorder and...perfectly disbanded." Peekskill police officials said the picnic grounds had been outside their jurisdiction; a state police spokesman said there had never been a request for state troopers. The commander of Peekskill Post 274 of the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Legion" style="background-image: none; color: #795cb2; text-decoration: none; word-wrap: break-word;" title="American Legion">American Legion</a> stated: "Our objective was to prevent the Paul Robeson concert and I think our objective was reached."</span></p><p style="caret-color: rgb(32, 33, 34); color: #202122; font-size: 14px; margin: 0.5em 0px;"><span style="font-family: helvetica;">Following a meeting of local citizens, union members, and Robeson supporters who formed The Westchester Committee for Law and Order, it unanimously was determined that Robeson should be invited back to perform at Peekskill.

Rankin said that he wanted it known that the American people are not in sympathy "with that <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nigger" style="background-image: none; color: #795cb2; text-decoration: none; word-wrap: break-word;" title="Nigger">Nigger</a> Communist and that bunch of Reds who went up there."

I ask that the word be taken down and stricken from the RECORD inasmuch as there are two members in this house of Negro race." Rayburn claimed that Rankin had not said "nigger" but "Negro" but Rankin yelled over him saying "I said Niggra! Just as I have said since I have been able to talk and shall continue to say." Speaker Rayburn then defended Rankin, ruling that "the gentlemen from Mississippi is not subject to a point of order...referred to the Negro race and they should not be afraid of that designation."

They condemned the attacks and the failure of Governor Dewey and the State Police to protect the lives and property of citizens as well as called for a full investigation of the violence and prosecution of the perpetrators. Despite condemnation from progressives and civil rights activists, the mainstream press and local officials overwhelmingly blamed Robeson and his fans for "provoking" the violence. Following the Peekskill riots, other cities became fearful of similar incidents, and over 80 scheduled concert dates of Robeson's were canceled.</span></p><p style="margin: 0.5em 0px;"><span style="font-family: helvetica;">On September 12, 1949, in response to Robeson's controversial status in the press and leftist affiliations, the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Maritime_Union" style="background-image: none; color: #795cb2; text-decoration: none; word-wrap: break-word;" title="National Maritime Union">National Maritime Union</a> convention considered a motion that Robeson's name be removed from the union's honorary membership list. The motion was withdrawn for lack of support among members. Later that month, the All-China Art and Literature Workers' Association and All-China Association of Musicians of Liberated China protested the Peekskill attack on Robeson. On October 2, 1949, Robeson spoke at a luncheon for the National Labor Conference for Peace, Ashland Auditorium, Chicago, and referred to the riots.</span></p><h2 style="border-bottom-color: rgb(162, 169, 177); border-bottom-style: solid; border-bottom-width: 1px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 1.3; margin: 1em 0px 0.25em; overflow: hidden; padding: 0px;"><span class="mw-headline" id="Legacy_and_reconciliation_ceremonies" style="font-family: helvetica;">Legacy and reconciliation ceremonies</span></h2><p style="margin: 0.5em 0px;"><span style="font-family: helvetica;">In recent years, Westchester County has gone to great lengths to make amends to the survivors of the riots by holding a commemorative ceremony, at which an apology was made for their treatment.
