Hi, Jeri -
I read the article by Will Kaufman in The Conversation twice before, and I read it again just now. As usual, I agree with Will Kaufman. I call myself a "radical moderate" and usually take the middle path even if nobody else is taking it - and I'm glad to see that Will Kaufman also takes the middle path on this matter.

Kaufman is responding to a Breitbart article about an article in Folklife, published by the Smithsonian Institution. The article is titled This Land Is Whose Land? Indian Country and the Shortcomings of Settler Protest, published June 14, 2019 and written by Mali Obomsawin. Mali Obomsawin raises very good questions and gives excellent information, but he is not as critical of Woody and his song as Breitbart insists him to be.

And I'd like to leave you with a link to https://www.willkaufman.com/, because Will Kaufman knows Woody Guthrie better than anyone else on earth.
