January 9th was the birthday of one of my heroes. Joan Baez more - TopicsExpress



          

January 9th was the birthday of one of my heroes. Joan Baez more than any other historical person has helped shape the type of person I am and the kind of person I want to be. She is a fighter for social change and warrior against social injustices. One of the things I love about her is that she is just as likely to speak out and denounce the far right as she is the far left. She is the undisputed queen of folk music, but her musical career has always been secondary to her mission to advance human rights and end suffering in the world. My mom raised me on her music. When I listen to her music, I feel my mother’s spirit with me. The link is to her most famous song. It is widely accepted that she wrote this song about Bob Dylan who she not only discovered but also had a relationship with early on in her career. https://youtube/watch?v=2MSwBM_CbyY
