"I've been to the mountaintop . . .
Today I have a dream . . .
Let us never forget the words . . .
Let us never forget the deeds . . .
Let us never forget the dream of Martin Luther King"

A folk song is what's wrong and how to fix it
Or it could be who's' hungry and where their mouth is
Or who's out of work and where the job is
Or who's broke and where the money is
Or who's carrying a gun and where the peace is
–Woody Guthrie
Your songs really strike a chord… inspiring ... make me want to keep up the fight!
