This is my fun little place where i can stand naked in front of the world and post all of the interesting things that I see and do, often times while i should be seeing and doing other things. I hope this inspires you to see and do something other than what you are 'supposed' to be. Enjoy the respite!

FolkStreams » Afro-American Work Songs in a Texas Prison
Pete Seeger and Toshi Seeger, their son Daniel, and folklorist Bruce Jackson visited a Texas prison in Huntsville in March of 1966 and produced this rare document of of work songs by inmates of the Ellis Unit. Worksongs helped African American prisoners survive the grueling work demanded of them. With mechanization and integration, worksongs like these died out shortly after this film was made.
