JOTD: Pete Seeger


This dude was JAF. His music and political views got ol' Pete in a heap of trouble. What did he do? Change his mind? Shut the fuck up? No, he said fuck the establishment and was blacklisted as a Communist. His music served to "white-ify" the civil rights movement. He could have easily walked the other way, sang different songs, but he didn't and that's why he's the Jackal of the Day.  Martin Luther King Jr. was also quite jackal, but I didn't want to change my blogging alias to Captain Fuckin' Obvious.

    Please tell me what's un-jackal about my boy Pete. He had hit songs in the 40s, yo! He played at Barack Obamas Innauguration. Can you explain the benefit of each Jackals Den contributor breaking off to form a blonologue?(blog/monologue) I/We still have no clue why you branched out and got yo' satellite on. BD2, you better get some northeast corridor contributors or tuck tail and come back to the Den full time. I ain't mad 'atcha. Remember the Italian Icees, ninja? Remember stickball, ninja? Remember knockin' ninjas out the box? Nothin' like the old school.
