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.
