"What, exactly, monopoly are you talking about?

Consider the songs "We Shall Overcome" and "Joe Hill." Explain why they are without power."

Conrad will never admit that the monopoly came from the "other side" that limited opportunties for appearances on the radio. Conrad fails to understand that having an opportunity to share views IS the sharing of that stage by the owners of the platform - not the artists who are using their opportunity.

Conrad will never admit that folk music comes from a community, and the community that "created" Joe Hill and we Shal Overcome is a folk community.
