At a Rev. War event, I heard a speaker obsessing on the word β€œPatriot.” Dismissing that ineffectual TV personality, I told the stories of people of many races, genders, and faiths who created our nation. Now, that ignorant creature, is systematically obliterating the history of those true patriots.

Capitulation to Tyrants 2/4
As a native-born New Yorker, I grew up in a town (Yaphank) where the German American Settlement League and the American Bund had a strong presence. I always believed that those monsters were a bunch of old, angry, impotent creatures who would soon die off...

Capitulation to Tyrants 1/4
I sent this to Senator Schumer, and I feel that I should share it here.
Senator Schumer,
I am extremely disappointed in your cowardly capitulation to Trump and his fascist minions. I am the descendant of people who helped to form this country since the 17th Century...

I am sad to relate that Mary Zikos, co-founder of Handsome Molly died at home this week, after a period of failing health. Mary delighted audiences and other musicians for over 50 years with her rich voice and vast store of folk songs. We hope you will remember her by singing a song in her memory.

David, as we have learned in recent times, laws mean nothing if no one tasked with enforcing them will do so. In Florida, this pedophile is in no danger of prosecution.
