Folk News:
Long-time civil rights activist and co-founder of the Freedom
Song Network,
Eleanor Walden has organized a petition to urge the American
Friends
Service Committee to nominate Pete Seeger for the Nobel Peace Prize.
Here is an overview of
her petition:
"Pete Seeger
has been a crusader for Peace and Social Justice over the course of
his 83 year lifetime. As a prominent musician his songs, messages and
performance style have worked to engage other people, particularly
the youth, in causes to end the Vietnam war, ban nuclear weapons,
work for international solidarity, and ecological responsibility.
It is time that a cultural worker receives the recognition
that this work has great influence and global reach, that it is not only
a medium of entertainment but of education, compassion and fraternity."
