Album: Ten New Songs
"On Earth Day last I was on a plane headed to Europe, reading Riki Ott's fantastic book, One Last Drop, about Exxon Valdez disaster, just as the oil began to gush off the Louisiana coast. Anyway, this song is about a particular incident in 1993 when fishermen blockaded the harbor".

"I was just fiddling around on the guitar one day and this is what came out. I was thinking of stories Bob and Jo Steck used to tell about the 1930's in their respective homes – Bob in Iowa and Jo in New York City. I suppose this song represents the most fundamental message I and others like me are trying to communicate – in union we can achieve anything".

Lyrics and Music by David Rovics
Album: Ten New Songs
It's strange getting older.. When I was young the old people around me were the 1930's generation, veterans of the massive Depression-era struggles of the day. Bob Steck lived a few miles down the road from my mother in Connecticut and was, among other things, a veteran of the Abraham Lincoln Brigade and spent 16 months in one of Franco's concentration camps. He died a couple years ago at the venerable old age of 95, and this song is for him and others like him. Many of them of course were killed in battle in Spain long ago. Most of those who survived the war spent the rest of their lives serving humanity in one way or another. The few survivors are now in their nineties.

I had friends on several of those boats, including the Mavi Marmara. Just when the most cynical of leftists thinks Israel can't possibly do something even more outrageous than the last outrage, they go and do it. They massacred unarmed activists trying to bring basic necessities in to help alleviate the suffering of a besieged, hungry population. Read Kevin Neish's firsthand account of the raid on the ship.

Lyrics and music by David Rovics
"I already recorded this song on my CD, Make It So [1996], and might not have recorded it once again, except that when Anne Feeney heard me sing it around a campfire at the Kerrville Folk Festival, she said she liked it but that it might stand a little editing. I had long thought that myself, and after she made the suggestion, Chrysler helped me cut out half the verses during a long drive one night someplace in the Midwest. My other name for the song is "Labor History 101." I used to call it "Ballad of the Proletariat," but Pete Seeger suggested I change the title, pointing out that "proletariat" is a "long, Latin word" which "might as well be in Swahili, or Chinese." I originally wrote the song in the spring of '93, and it has obviously been a victim of the "folk process."

Iraq, soldato Usa ammette stupro irachena e omicidio
Barker davanti alla corte marziale Usa. Eviterà esecuzione
16/11/2006
ROMA. Un soldato americano ha ammesso ieri di avere stuprato una ragazzina irachena di 14 anni e di avere ucciso lei e tutti i membri della sua famiglia. James Barker, riferisce la Bbc online, ha ammesso le proprie colpe all'inizio del processo marziale a suo carico in corso negli Usa.
L'ammissione di colpevolezza permetterà all'imputato di evitare la pena capitale. Barker è uno dei quattro soldati Usa accusati dell'omicidio. Tutti i sospetti appartengono alla Seconda Brigata di Elite della 101esima Divisione Aerea.
L'avvocato di Barker, David Sheldon, ha spiegato che il suo assistito ha deciso di collaborare con al Corte e di testimoniare contro gli altri sospettati. I tre imputati che dovranno rispondere di stupro e omicuidio sono Jesse Spielman. Paul Cortez e Bryan Howard.

"Written some time after the fall of the Berlin Wall, this song is a tribute to La Pasionaria, Durruti, the Lincoln Brigade and all the others around the world who fought and generally died in defense of freedom in Spain. The Spanish Civil War is seen by many as the real beginning of WWII, and also represents perhaps the most spectacular outpouring of international solidarity the world has ever seen. Though the war in Spain was won by the Spanish fascists (with the aid of Hitler's planes, Mussolini's troops and America's oil), the legacy of the International Brigades who went to defend Spain's democractic government continues to inspire many today."

"I was in a wonderful cafe (Hyperion Espresso) in Fredericksburg, Virginia, when I read in the paper about this helicopter pilot who landed in My Lai near the end of this horrible massacre perpetrated upon Vietnamese peasants by American troops. I never knew until I read this article that certain American troops were also involved with finally putting an end to it. The only reason Hugh Thomson's heroic story emerged after thirty years was because the government of Vietnam was preparing to give him a medal for his actions, and the U.S. Army decided it wanted to try to avoid being upstaged." - David Rovics.
