<DIV><FONT face="Times New Roman">Here are links to three Phil Ochs tunes that are as relevant today as they were in the 1960s. The first can be applied to many of the current batch of so-called progressives, leftists, and social activists along with the Liberals of today and the not so distant past. The second tune represents a commentary on the immigration issues and policies of 60s but is relevant top the topic of immigration in the current atmosphere where use and abuse exploitation of immigrants for the benefits of the mostly white establishment when expedient and discrimination and racism when no longer needed continues only in a more paranoid form. The thirds song speaks to the manufacturing of consent and control of the boundaries of acceptable dissent and debate by the establishment and its minions.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face="Times New Roman">Phil Ochs was and still is a troubadour/political activist of the highest order from the sixties who wrote insightful songs of critical social commentary on the topics of the day back in the the 60s and up until his death of the first order and on a par with Bob Dylan’s best work. Most of these songs are relevant today. He should not be forgotten, which is why I am calling attention to him and his work.</FONT></DIV>
