Time Waits For No Man

[2005]
Album: The Most Dangerous Man In The World...

It's time for everyone to wake up and step up before our "leaders" trade our version of "freedom" and "democracy" for what they've sold to Iraq.

"Hi Everybody,
Keep on keepin' on, this scrap is winnable with all of you awesome peeps working on it, and I'm going to try and help out.

I just heard the raw compassion of super-qualified 9/11 Truth whistleblower Indira Singh, she was also a hero working for 5 days straight as an EMT after the Twin Towers fell until she got too sick to stand - and like thousands of New Yorkers she still has related health problems. She details her harrowing tale of being victimized by "terror" a few minutes from where she lived on an hour long episode of the "Guns and Butter" radio show, including the fact that she was supposed to be on the 106th floor for a conference and would've been if she'd woken...

Poverty Is Slavery

[2005]
Album: Confessions Of An Aging B-Boy

"Poverty is the worst form of violence."
- Mahatma Gandhi

"Gandhi once said "Poverty is the worst form of violence", because while getting your ass-kicked or getting shot nine-times could land you in a hospital for weeks, poverty can last for years, or even generations...
...and since he's been gone for a minute no, I figured I'd add my two-rupees..."

Не стреляй!

Не стреляй!
[1980]
Canzone scritta da Iouri Chevtchouk e proposta dai suoi DDT in piena invasione sovietica dell’Afghanistan. La canzone rese celebre il gruppo (e lo è tutt’oggi) anche se la canzone non venne mai passata in tv e in radio ma circolò solo nell’underground…

Testo, e approfondimento sulla guerra sovietica in Afghanistan, trovati su l’histgeobox.

A proposito, non vi pare assurdo e tragico che pure i nostri soldati vadano a rischiare la pelle e a crepare insieme agli americani contro i taliban, figli e nipoti di quei mujahideen che proprio l’amministrazione statunitense Carter-Brzezinski armò ed addestrò contro gli sporchi comunisti?
Bah…

La loi de 1920

La loi de 1920
[1966]

Testo e approfondimento trovati su l’histgeobox.



In Francia, alla fine della prima guerra mondiale, il governo conservatore era convinto che la guerra, finita per i maschi, dovesse continuare per le donne, come se anche loro non avessero già pagato un altissimo tributo di sangue… Alle donne toccava ripopolare la madrepatria e guai a colei che si fosse sottratta al sacro compito! Così nel 1920 fu varata una legge che puniva severamente l’aborto così come ogni propaganda anticoncezionale. Col passare del tempo quella legge fu sempre più inasprita, nonostante si fosse rivelata fallimentare per l’incremento delle nascite e invece deleteria per l’aumento spropositato degli aborti clandestini e, in definitiva, per la salute delle donne. Con la seconda guerra mondiale e l’avvento del regime fascista di Vichy l’aborto divenne crimine di Stato e rotolarono addirittura un paio di teste di... (Continues)

Follow the Drinking Gourd

Anonymous
Follow the Drinking Gourd
Follow the Drinking Gourd

Prima metà del XIX secolo.
Prima pubblicazione risalente al 1928

“The Big Dipper”, “Il Grande Mestolo”, è il nome che in America viene dato alla costellazione dell’Orsa Maggiore, il nostro “Grande Carro”.
Gli schiavi neri la chiamavano “The Drinking Gourd”, letteralmente “La Zucca per Bere”, con riferimento alle borracce fatte con zucche cave che venivano utilizzate per il trasporto dell’acqua durante i lunghi cammini. Erano le sue stelle ad orientare la loro fuga dagli Stati del sud verso la libertà.
Pare che “Follow the Drinking Gourd” fosse il canto preferito da Harriet Tubman, l’eroica “Mosè Nera”, quando nella prima metà dell’800 accompagnava nottetempo, lungo le segrete vie dell’Underground Railroad, i suoi fratelli nelle estenuanti marce verso gli Stati liberi del nord.
Sicuramente il testo della canzone rivela una vera e propria mappa che consentiva... (Continues)

Go down, Moses

Anonymous
Go down, Moses
Prima metà del XIX secolo

Testo e approfondimento trovati su l’histgeobox.

Si tratta di uno dei più famosi Negro Spirituals, reso celebre dall’esecuzione di Paul Robeson, poi registrato nel 1958 da Louis Armstrong.

All’inizio del XIX secolo gli schiavi afroamericani erano quasi tutti evangelizzati. Essi trasformarono ben presto gli inni battisti e metodisti in canti religiosi originali, i Negro Spirituals, in cui riecheggiavano le antiche sonorità africane. Si trattava di canti di grande “blue”, di grande tristezza, ma che parlavano anche di redenzione, di speranza e di vittoria sulla miseria e sulla schiavitù. Canti di protesta, insomma, nascosti dietro i versetti biblici e, per questo, tollerati o non compresi nella loro vera essenza dai padroni bianchi.
E va qui ricordato che gli schiavi afroamericani non si limitarono a cantarla la loro ansia di libertà… Il movimento per i diritti... (Continues)

Here We Go Again

Here We Go Again
[2003]
Lyrics & Music by Ethan Miller
Album: Rainy Day Record

This song was written at the beginning of the U.S. invasion of Iraq, as a lament for the onset of yet another cycle of suffering. It is about the "other" history of America, and of empires and nation-states in general – the painful history that lies beneath the romantic stories about freedom and liberty, patriotism, and "how noble it is to die for one’s country." The true heroes of history are those who fought not for God, Glory or Nation, but for peace, justice, and the dignity of all.
Here we go again, another bloody war

Child of A Fallen Soldier

[2005]
Album: Little Time/Somebody Over There

When I first started writing the songs for the SOMEBODY OVER THERE album, our conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan were very much a different story from what's happening now. Other than the soldiers of the 507th, whom we all got to know quite well, there weren't a lot of casualties. What we heard about in letters from "over there" was that the weather was too hot, there was never enough of anything to go around and tours of duty seemed to stretch on forever. Loved ones on both ends missed each other dearly.

Now, with the insurgency, hardly a day goes by we don't lose somebody over there. I felt that SOMEBODY OVER THERE should tell that part of the story also. I decided I wanted to tell it from the point of view of a child losing a parent, and to make the narrative make sense, I needed the soldier and the child to be of opposite sex. For the father-soldier/daughter... (Continues)

This was an endorsement for Ron Paul 's 2008 election campaign.
UPDATE 12/09:

For this he gets the Nobel Peace Prize?
