Occupy Everywhere - Sept 17th - Day of Rage Against Wall Street and what it stands for!
#87
Peter Yarrow of Peter, Paul and Mary sang and played his guitar before the live cameras at the park HQ of Occupy Wall Street. He also had his daughter sing a Native American song [in a Native American language, with some translation]. It was all wonderful, and brought tears to my eyes. I had met them all many times, listened to them at many demos and concerts in the distant past and had the unbelievable experience of Mary Travers playing in my tent during a demonstration in L.A. for me and less than a handful of others. Mary is gone now...but Peter was so strong - as good as ever, if a bit older - but has aged like good wine! It did my heart very good to hear him and to see the electric reaction in those who had never seen, heard or even known about him!
They were stunned!...and they were moved - as was I. I'm sure it will be somewhere on YouTube or their website to be found. Just very moving and got things moving. Thank you Peter. Thank you Paul. And a special Thank you to Mary - who would have been there, if she could.

We Shall Overcome....some day!
