I've been
writing and performing my
own music seriously since about Y2K. I'm just now beginning to integrate it into the larger picture of my relationship with the healing arts and this website. Stay tuned! Below is a music video recorded at the largest anti-war, pro-peace art demonstration in the U.S. since before the beginning of the conflict in Iraq! It was put together in an incredibly brief period of time, held here on Maui and attracted over 600 works of art from local artists. A huge venue completely dedicated to the theme, it ran for about a month and became a temporary center for activism on the island with information and com- munity related events, along with music. In this video, I take you on a journey through the rooms of the exhibit as I sing Stop Killing Our Children. You can put me on record : I don't beleive we, as a species, are evolved or ready enough to give up this nonsense we call War. We are still no more than animals who claim our human part seeks peace. We continue to insist we have the wisdom, intelligence and tools to attain it. But, until we stop expending our resources to kill the innocent, we are no more than savages. The truth is, the murder of children is used to create a tactical advantage over the opponent. It is not "collateral damage" as claimed. It is an accepted cost of doing business. We can say "NO!" to that. What if we declared our humanity by insisting ALL children under age 13 be removed from the sites of war? ANY person, of high or low rank respon- sible for the death of a child during wartime would have commited a crime against humanity by placing the child in harm's way. Don't like it? Find me a better place to start. If only I had one song to sing, this would be it. |
