Answer:
A fixture on nationwide radio in the 1940s, Seeger also had a string of hit records during the early 1950s as a member of the Weavers, most notably their recording of Lead Belly's "Goodnight, Irene", which topped the charts for 13 weeks in 1950. Members of the Weavers were blacklisted during the McCarthy Era. In the 1960s, Seeger re-emerged on the public scene as a prominent singer of protest music in support of international disarmament, civil rights, counterculture, workers rights, and environmental causes.
A prolific songwriter, his best-known songs include "Where Have All the Flowers Gone?" (with additional lyrics by Joe Hickerson), "If I Had a Hammer (The Hammer Song)" (with Lee Hays of the Weavers), "Kisses Sweeter Than Wine" (also with Hays), and "Turn! Turn! Turn!", which have been recorded by many artists both in and outside the folk revival movement. "Flowers" was a hit recording for the Kingston Trio (1962); Marlene Dietrich, who recorded it in English, German and French (1962); and Johnny Rivers (1965). "If I Had a Hammer" was a hit for Peter, Paul and Mary (1962) and Trini Lopez (1963) while the Byrds had a number one hit with "Turn! Turn! Turn!" in 1965.
Seeger was one of the folk singers responsible for popularizing the spiritual "We Shall Overcome" (also recorded by Joan Baez and many other singer-activists) that became the acknowledged anthem of the Civil Rights Movement, soon after folk singer and activist Guy Carawan introduced it at the founding meeting of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) in 1960. In the PBS American Masters episode "Pete Seeger: The Power of Song", Seeger said it was he who changed the lyric from the traditional "We will overcome" to the more singable "We shall overcome".
sorry if to much hehehe
Many news orginizations have bias because of political payoffs or opinionated leaders. It is often forgotten thats news reporters are also average people, directing attention to different societal issues does not rid them of their own opinions. Also political leaders may often times be in cohesive alliances with certain news stations, making their information now skewed in support of their allies. New information could also be gained from the public or social media which in turn becomes a game of telephone for society making it easy for stories to get switched or information to be lost.
Shakespearean version of belated. This is because of the use of the words "apace" and "timely inn", meaning the traveller is pacing; walking fast to get to the inn that seemingly is waiting.
Answer:
The poem "Lilacs" is written in free verse. The poem flows almost like a conversation. The poem doesn’t follow any sort of traditional pattern or style. For example, the lines of the poem vary in length and do not follow a rhyme scheme. The free verse form allows the poet to create vivid and descriptive images.
If the poem had been written as a sonnet, the poem would lose much of its description. The 14-line structure of the sonnet would restrict the poet's words and ideas. As a result, the images would have to be much less detailed and developed. For instance, consider the following lines from the poem:
Lilacs,
False blue,
White,
Purple,
Color of lilac,
You have forgotten your Eastern origin,
The veiled women with eyes like panthers,
The swollen, aggressive turbans of jeweled Pashas.
These lines give the impression that the speaker is looking at and addressing each lilac separately—each line represents each lilac. The sonnet form would not have allowed for such varied line length or involved descriptions.
