Peace Or Protest? Folk Music Faces A Divided America

By CRAIG HAVIGHURST 

http://wmot.org/post/peace-or-protest-folk-music-faces-divided-america#stream/0

KANSAS CITY, KS, (HAVIGHURST)  --  Folk Alliance International chose the theme for its 29th conference - Forbidden Folk: Activism In Art - a year and a half ago, when Donald Trump was given zero chance of winning the Republican nomination, let alone the presidency. His victory was a seismic event for the country, and artists across all genres are asking themselves how to respond.
