"Gotta Travel On" is an American #folksong. The earliest known version was printed in #CarlSandburg's #TheAmericanSongbag in 1927 under the title "Yonder Comes the High Sheriff" and several variations were recorded in the 1920s, but the best known version is credited to #PaulClayton, #TheWeavers, Larry Ehrlich, and Dave Lazer and was first recorded by #PeteSeeger in 1958. A 1958 recording by #BillyGrammer backed by the #AnitaKerr Singers reached #4 on the #USPopChart.

That's the boat Pete and Toshi Seeger used in their successful campaign to clean up the Hudson River and organize people to work for environmental justice.
Everybody out on that water is benefiting in immediate and quantifiable ways from the "left-wing" "politics" of the Seegers.

Opening line: "#ElonMusk is a fuck of a man". 👏
Then it keeps on getting better. 😈
Bless you, #CarsieBlanton ❤
For those who don't know Carsie Blanton, she's an unapologetic anti-capitalist from the #GreatSatan who doesn't pull her punches. But her wit and humour is infectious, and her output prolific. She's like a 21st-century #PeteSeeger, but without Seeger's cloying earnestness. The revolution can be fun!
#KetamineBoy is an easy target, but she has plenty of other targets too.

Another nerikomi experiment, this time a lil snek. I colored the porcelain myself -- the yellow is a Mason stain. The green is that same yellow with a touch of cobalt oxide. I'm not sure where the dark spots came from but I'm guessing they're due to tiny lumps of cobalt that I didn't mix in thoroughly. The red eyes are porcelain slip colored with a little bit of Mason stain.
This piece was inspired by a version of Henry My Son by Pete Seeger and Arlo Guthrie that I listened to obsessively as a kid. The song is a humourous American reworking of the Child ballad Lord Randall.

"Little Boxes" is a song written and composed by #MalvinaReynolds in 1962. The song was first released by her friend, #PeteSeeger, in 1963, and became his only charting single in January 1964. The song is a #socialSatire about the development of #suburbia and associated #conformist #middleclass attitudes. It mocks suburban #tractHousing as "little boxes" of different colors "all made out of ticky-tacky" and which "all look just the same".

World War Two was the archetypal good war. And ask any liberal, FDR was the archetypal good president. But don't ask Millard Lampell, Lee Hays, Pete Seeger, and Woody Guthrie -- The Almanac Singers.[1] They released Songs for John Doe[2] in 1941 and it's full of anti-draft, anti-war, anti-FDR songs, inspired by the Selective Training and Service Act of 1940, the first peacetime conscription law ever enacted in the US.[3]
And are you afraid to fight, Billy boy, Billy boy?
Are you afraid to fight, charming Billy?

Time to dust off a bunch of old songs which are sadly still all too relevant.
Waist Deep in the Big Muddy by Pete Seeger.

Well, I'm not going to point any moral;
I'll leave that for yourself
Maybe you're still walking, you're still talking
You'd like to keep your health
But every time I read the papers
That old feeling comes on;
We're -- waist deep in the Big Muddy
And the big fool says to push on -

"The Powerful Messages That Woody Guthrie & Pete Seeger Inscribed on Their Guitar & Banjo: 'This Machine Kills Fascists' and 'This Machine Surrounds Hate and Forces it to Surrender'
(. . .)
Guthrie was deeply embedded in the formative racial politics of the country. While some people may convince themselves that a time in the U.S. past was “great”—unmarred by class conflict and racist violence and exploitation, secure in the hands of a benevolent white majority—Guthrie’s life tells a much more complex story. Many Indigenous people feel with good reason that Guthrie’s most famous song, 'The Land is Your Land,' has contributed to nationalist mythology. Others have viewed the song as a Marxist anthem. Like much else about Guthrie, and the country, it’s complicated.
(. . .)
But whether socialist or populist in nature, Guthrie’s patriotism was always subversive. 'By 1940,' writes John Pietaro, he had 'joined forces with Pete Seeger in the Almanac Singers,' who 'as a group, joined the Communist Party. Woody’s guitar had, by then, been adorned with the hand-painted epitaph, THIS MACHINE KILLS FASCISTS.' (Guthrie had at least two guitars with the slogan scrawled on them, one on a sticker and one with ragged hand-lettering.) The phrase, claims music critic Jonny Whiteside, was originally 'a morale-boosting WWII government slogan printed on stickers that were handed out to defense plant workers.' Guthrie reclaimed the propaganda for folk music’s role in the culture.
(. . .)
Guthrie’s long-lived brother-in-arms Pete Seeger, carried on in the tradition of anti-fascism and anti-racism after Woody succumbed in the last two decades of his life to Huntington’s disease. Like Guthrie, Seeger painted a slogan around the rim of his instrument of choice, the banjo, a message both playful and militant: 'This machine surrounds hate and forces it to surrender.'
(. . .)
Both Guthrie and Seeger drew direct connections between the fascism and racism they fought and capitalism’s outsized, destructive obsession with land and money. They felt so strongly about the battle that they wore their messages figuratively on their sleeves and literally on their instruments. Pete Seeger’s famous banjo has outlived its owner, and the colorful legend around it has been mass-produced by Deering Banjos. Where Guthrie’s anti-fascist guitars went off to is anyone’s guess, but if one of them were ever discovered, Robert Santelli writes, 'it surely would become one of America’s most valued folk instruments.' Or one of its most valued instruments in general."
