This is not a history lesson. We're not historians. We're songwriters. And anyway... how the hell is anybody going to explain the systematic state sponsored slaughter of close to a million people with a handful of songs? We're not.
Truth is, there is no explanation for the Rwandan genocide. What there is in abundance, however, is ignorance. If these songs make just one person dig a little deeper, then we've made our money back, so to speak. We've touched upon specific pieces of the horror, but don't even pretend to be able to understand it from the Rwandan point of view. We're observers from afar. Interested, heartbroken observers....but merely observers nonetheless. Please... (continuer)

Interview of Vietnam War veteran Rich Latrelle by Jane Pauley (NBC-TV).
Rich Latrelle was deeply affected by his 1st kill:
a Viet Cong soldier, whose photo of the man & his daughter Rich kept in his wallet for the next 30 years.
He left the photo at the Vietnam War Memorial Wall in Washington, DC, thinking he had achieved completion.
Among the thousands of mementos left at the Wall each year, the curator of the museum chose that photo for the cover of a book written about those objects.
Vet friends brought the book to Rich's attention.
Other acquaintences arranged for his meeting the daughter in her village in Vietnam.
Not knowing what to expect, he hesitantly approached her home, only to be greeted warmly with acceptance, honor, forgiveness & compassion.

Brigante se more
Ho letto tutti i commenti lasciati nel blog .. e si tratta di un argomento che tanto mi ha incuriosito .. peccato che non si è arrivati ad una conclusione .. io credo che nessuno può documentare che il testo Brigante Se More che voi chiamate anche Libertà sia un testo popolare (anche se lo fosse per davvero) visto che tutta la musica popolare è stata tramandata solo oralmente.

Sulla censura a Vedder, altro video daYouTube , caricato credo dagli stessi Pearl Jam, con il "ritaglio" censurato e quello originale (1 minuto e mezzo circa).
Molto bella anche la risposta dei PJ, che parte dall'episodio della censura per arrivare alla neutralità della rete, sul loro sito

LA CCG NUMERO 6000
E così eccoci giunti anche alla CCG n° 6000; ci abbiamo messo un po' più tempo del solito, stavolta, dato che la n° 5000 risale al gennaio scorso. Però queste ultime mille CCG sono state tra le più importanti mai inserite, oltre ad aver visto una progressiva trasformazione del nostro sito in spazio esclusivamente dedicato ai testi, alle traduzioni e ai commenti in vero spazio interattivo, con la possibilità di scaricare mp3 (tramite links) e video. Questo per quanto riguarda l'aspetto "tecnico" del sito; per l'altro aspetto, quello che più conta, forse l'unico commento da fare sarebbe quello espresso da Brett Dennen nella sua bella canzone: The Holidays Are Here (And We're Still At War). Perché in guerra ci siamo sempre tutti quanti. Allora, per questa 6000esima Canzone Contro la Guerra, abbiamo pensato di proporre una serie di vignette satiriche,... (continuer)
