    Default Pete Seeger - RIP

    RIP Pete Seeger.

    For those who don't remember him, he was a pillar of the antiwar folk scene in the 60's and 70s.

    He was a living middle finger to the military/industrial/corporate complex.

    Following the farce of the phoney Iraq and Afghanistan wars, his words ring truer than ever.


    I'm not sad that he died, but glad that he lived. He leaves a legacy of great antiwar songs.

    Pete Seeger's testimony before the "House of Un-American Activities" - A exercise in anti-communist witch hunting.

    Spoiler: He was sentenced to 1 year in prison for refusing to admit to having associated with "communists".
