Description
Across America, from Cambridge to Berkeley, from Seattle to New York, these songs are being sung today. They are contemporary songs of protest — songs that speak of freedom, of brotherhood, of man's hope for peace. Some of the songs are by professional writers — people like Phil Ochs, Malvina Reynolds, Pete Seeger, Tom Paxton, and others. Some are the folk songs of today — popular parodies, propaganada poetry, songs by the unknown, the anonymous, the marchers, the students, the many others who have always been the originators and keepers of our folksong tradition.
