I agree with Anne. Eventually, an unsanitized varient of the Guthrie folk music legacy is going to probably again break through the blockade of the U.S. Military-Industrial-Media-Music-Industry-Complex [MIMMIC]corporate censorship machine, as long as folk musicians who are into Woody Guthrie keep having events like the Woody Guthrie Birthday Bash VI (or maybe some more outdoor street events right outside the NYC tv studios which demand less censorship of younger anti-war folk music voices). Woody Guthrie's July 15, 1946 letter of 60 years ago also included the following passage that might have some relevance to the 21st-century U.S. "folk music commodification industry" moral crisis situation in this current "era of permanent war":

"Not all of us folk and ballad makers and singers stand where I stand. Not all of them see the world as I see it. Some would rather be a `character' and to be fotographed and filmed, broadcast and recorded, and paid big money by the big money side. They would rather occupy a certain social position, to be well known, to play the game of publicity gangsters and to enjoy the crowds that clap and yell when you tell them directly or indirectly that this old world is okie dokie, she is all right, she is a nice good place to live on, and if you kick or argue, or make too much noise with your mouth, then you are just a native barnkicker, and a griper, and you are kicked out by your own inability to `cooperate' with the high moguls."
