Thread Name: Ron Olesko's 'Traditions' Radio Show
Subject: RE: Ron Olesko's 'Traditions' Radio Show
actually Lizzie, I didn't write the words to 'Anthem for Dissent'..

I did create the music backdrop... the words were written by a Native lady in the USA who chose to be known as
'Ann Onimous'...it was later recited by longtime Mohawk activist and Attica Prison Rebellion survivor/scapegoat,
Splitting the Sky... who brought it to me for the project.... it has a lot more power and street cred coming from them then a white Canadian dude... it's been posted on the Justice Through Music Project site for awhile now along with many other 'topical' songs and artists...

but thanks anyway for the nod.... I haven't made the no-fly list yet,,,,, but the night is young....

so here's to Woody, Pete, Phil, Tom, Steve...and all the others who keep us engaged...
