OK, one more comment here and I will not post on this subject on THIS thread again. Directed mostly at Katlaughing, but all should think on it. I deal with kids in the JROTC program that I have described to you, of all races and nationalities. There are some Blacks, some Oriental, two that I recall were at least 75% Native American, and also the general mix of multiracial families. I make it a point to not look at skin color or ethnic background when dealing with these kids. There are, in good proportion, extremely bright and inteligent people in all the various groups represented. I enjoy working with all these kids and when time permits during the sessions, I try to teach some of the history that is not taught in the regular curriculum. Here is where Kat comes in; I feel that these kids will have a stronger grasp on reality by learning about slavery, racial inequality, and other bad aprts of our past heritage, because they can compare that which was to that which is and see for themselves how much has been done to correct these mistakes of our past and how much has yet to be done with all of us working together to arrive at an acceptable future. Hiding or protecting them from the past is, in my eyes, doing them an injustice. Now lets get on to music! Some more old time songs that I like are done by the Carter family. In fact I listen to them quite a bit. I received the complete collection (Rounder CD 1064 through CD 1072) of their complete Vitor recordings from the years 1927 (when they were first recorded by Ralph Peer for RCA Victor) to 1941, their last session. Wonderful listening, gives many hours of enjoyment. In fact I am listening right now to When The Roses Bloom In Dixieland, Number 3 in the collection.
