Woody Guthrie’s Unexpected Legacy
Update: 2025-11-10
Description
This land is your land. This land is my land. The line of this song has been a hot topic as our country goes through turmoil at every level, with the author, finding himself a tenant in a building owned by the President’s father, Fred Trump. The surprising legacy of an American folk song legend was at the center of the conversation on “Reflectivity” with Jesse Jr and Gina A.Towns. Guthrie’s transformation from child of a clan member to a civil rights activist, recounts an amazing journey, and confirms that when we are exposed to other people, their cultures, and faith, we can find common ground and cause a bend in the arc of justice - for all. This surprise legacy proves that our assumptions about one another may often prove false, and we miss out on the richness that America has to offer. Talking to one another is the call of the hour.
