Last night I was listening to National Public Radio and heard a great
compilation of "folk songs" which were written as commentary on the
election. Since Kim and I have been working on songs as a way of recording
history, I thought others might like to sample them. I know they would be a
great way to hook students into various perspectives on the election. A
warning though - they seem a bit irreverent after those remarkable speeches
by Bush and Gore last night. Site:
