You have reached a quiet bamboo grove, where you will find an eclectic mix of nature, music, writing, and other creative arts. Tao-Talk is curated by a philosophical daoist who has thrown the net away.
I saw and listened to it earlier today. The lyrics speak for themselves. It’s reassuring to see high profile artists like Bruce Springsteen having the courage to speak up. Of course, it’s not the first time he has done so, but it’s perhaps the most impactful moment to date.
Christian, I’ve been watching some YTs of journalists with boots on the ground in MN. Katie Phang interviewed the Mayor of St. Paul. It gave me insight into why orange douche is targeting them.
Classic Bruce. Having fairly recently posted his cover of Dylan’s “Chimes of Freedom,” it’s not surprising that he’d come up with an anthem on the current state in Minneapolis.

Bruce is leading the charge. Let’s make this a trend, fill the air with songs of hope, songs of unity, songs of resistance. Freedom songs.
Make it the only thing anyone talks about. This is how the Berlin Wall came down, this is how regimes change. Stand up. Sing.

Surprisingly good, I reckon. His hearts obviously in thr right place but it could have been a trainwreck – but it’s solid.

I just read about this song in the paper a few minutes ago. You saved me from going to look for it. This calls for a re-blog. Thank you.

I never followed him much when he became famous, but have grown to admire him a lot more recently. He’s a powerful presence.

Colbert is great. Obviously, so is Springsteen! Both give me some hope. And that all I have to say about that!
