AMERICAN MASTERS Pete Seeger: The Power of Song aired February 27 on PBS (check local listings). For more information, visit http://www.pbs.org/americanmas... Pete Seeger helped introduce America to its own musical heritage, devoting his life to using the power of sing as a force for social change. Standing strong for deeply-held beliefs, Seeger went from the top of the pop charts to the top of the blacklist and was banned from American commercial television for more than 17 years. This determined singer/songwriter made his voice heard and encouraged the people of the world to sing out along with him. Now almost 90, Seeger continues to invigorate and inspire the musicians who help tell his story- including Joan Baez, Bruce Springsteen, Natalie Maines, Tom Paxton, Arlo Guthrie, and others. AMERICAN MASTERS is produced for PBS by Thirteen/WNET New York.

I watched him sing 'Waist Deep In The Big Muddy' live on the Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour in the late 1960s. It was a parable for Johson's continued war in Vietnam. Sadly for American freedom, that controversial performance led eventually to the show's cancellation.

Pete believes in people being able to speak the truth without fear. That's a fundamental human freedom and something that's supposedly a fundamental freedom in this country. Repugnantcans want freedom of speech, but only if you agree with them. Long live Pete, Joanie, Dylan and all who speak for the people and not the corporations.
