Below: Pete Seeger turns 90

Pete Seeger: "I honestly believe that the future is going to be millions of little things saving us. I imagine a big seesaw, and at one end of this seesaw is on the ground with a basket half-full of big rocks in it. The other end of the seesaw is up in the air. It’s got a basket one-quarter full of sand. And some of us got teaspoons, and we’re trying to fill up sand. A lot of people are laughing at us, and they say, “Ah, people like you have been trying to do that for thousands of years, and it’s leaking out as fast as you’re putting it in.” But we’re saying, “We’re getting more people with teaspoons all the time.” And we think, “One of these years, you’ll see that whole seesaw go zooop in the other direction.” And people will say, “Gee, how did it happen so suddenly?” Us and all our little teaspoons. Now granted, we’ve got to keep putting it in, because if we don’t keep putting teaspoons in, it will leak out, and the rocks will go back again. Who knows?"

This is a "must see": legendary folk singer/activist/national treasure Pete Seeger turns 90. Amy Goodman of Democracy Now! interviews Pete Seeger, Bruce Springsteen, Dr. Bernice Johnson Reagon, Joan Baez, Tom Morello of Rage Against the Machine, Steve Earle, Ani DiFranco, Dar Williams, Billy Bragg, Michael Franti, and Tim Robbins about Pete Seeger at the tribute to Pete at Madison Square Garden with a capacity crowd of 18,000 people. This is excellent, grab a drink and some popcorn, and watch this...you'll be glad you did! Especially if you don't know a lot about Pete Seeger.

Amy Goodman: Pete Seeger carries us on.
