No wrong!

When did pete seeger hold hands with anyone he did not agree with.

Not that he had to but it would have been the right thing to do.

Have him contact me and I will ask the relevant questions and get back.

It does need some more research.

But when you want to hold hands holding hands with those who agree with you is easy . Seeking out and holding hands on the same stage or same programme now that is achievement.

Seeger et. al. seem to get the reputation for uniting people. I don't think so. Uniting them to his own way of thinking is not uniting anything and brainwashing using the only available channel for one point of view is not good.

Seeger did many fine things and its a long list. But political bridge building was not one of them although he talked about it. So far no evidence he actually did it himself. But I am no expert. Let the experts find a time when he joined hands with people he disagreed with patched things up and shared the stage equally.

Now that is the ethical thing to do. No I dont know where the oppostion was however I did meet a researcher at loc recently who could cite chapter and verse on a few of them.
