"Then God sat down -
On the side of a hill where he could think;
By a deep, wide river he sat down;
With his head in his hands,
God thought and thought,
Till he thought I'll make me a man!"
James Weldon Johnson

Every now and then someone steps out of the mists and tells the world the truth. They are never received warmly. If you don't believe me, ask Jesus Christ ...
Jesus is one of my heroes. Another is Woody Guthrie. Woody would be over a hundred years old now so it's doubtful he'd be riding the rails, but there's no doubt he'd still be speaking truth to power.
Listen to the lyrics below and read up on the Ludlow Massacre. Past is often prologue you know.

So very powerful ... yes, past is prologue ... forget the past, be doomed to repeat it
