Pete Seeger strummed his banjo to one song after another, and they all sang. A hundred thousand defiant freedom singers breaking the law with Pete Seeger, filling the stadium with words their government did not want them to hear, words they all knew and had sung together.
In the 1970s, Pete Seeger was invited to sing in Barcelona, Spain.
As Pete prepared to go on, officials handed him a list of songs he was not allowed to sing.
“So I'll just play the chords; maybe you know the words. They didn't say anything about *you* singing them.”
Happy Birthday Pete Seeger
