The Last Song of Victor Jara

Remembering the once-forgotten "Bob Dylan of Chile" who died, after being tortured, in the 1971 Pinochet coup.

It's exceptional.

In July I wrote about the radio station I listen to seeking song list of listeners' favorite songs to make a week of programming. I wanted to a list inspired by Woodly Guthrie's "All You Fascists." I did make a list, but I suspect that not even one of the songs I recomended got selected. One of my favortites is Victor Jara's Hands by Calexico.

Here's my list:

Darkness Darkness ~Ritchie Havens

How Long Have You Been Blind ~Lenny Kravitz

Mentira ~Manu Chao

Victor Jara's Hands ~Calexico

Morning Dew ~Long John Baldry

Wake Up ~Rage Against The Machine

Bloodless ~Andrew Bird

Which Side Are You On? ~Birds On a Wire

Slave Driver ~Our Native Daughters

Downpressor Man ~Sinead O'Connor

Change ~Mavis Staples

All You Fascists ~Billy Bragg

Bella Ciao ~Chumbawamba

Riot! (Extended) ~Earl Sweatshirt

Talking About a Revolution ~Tracy Chapman

None of Us Are Free ~Ray Charles

A Change Is Gonna Come ~Billy Preston

People Get Ready ~The Chambers Brothers

People Have the Power ~Patti Smith

Love Army ~Resistance Revival Chorus

Renee’s birthday.

From “Happy Birthday Two You…” from Detective Comics #747 (August 2000), written by Greg Rucka, art by William Rosado and Steve Mitchell, letters by Todd Klein.

These excerpts omit glimpses into Renee’s life while she was still in the closet, and the heavy weight she carries in both her personal and professional lives, which makes her moment of happiness at the end even more satisfying. Read the whole issue if you can find it.

V is for Victoria's Mr Greedy Esquire. ----- Victoria Coren Mitchell brought her little home made mr greedy esquire in for most elegant thing starting with G and got 2 points. Later in the series she brought him in again for most ridiculous thin thing. She claim Greg couldn't put her last for something he'd called ridiculous previously and she gained herself 5 points. I enjoyed Victoria a lot of taskmaster and really enjoy her on only connect. I did struggle to come up with an idea for this one (peoplemhave suggested things that would have worked possibly better but this is a bit of fun) and I got a bit stuck on the idea of Victoria. Who was your favourite Mr men character? --- #atozoftaskmaster #taskmaster #taskmasterfanart #taskmasteruk #taskmasterseries13 #illustration #illustrator #mrmen #mrgreedy #watercolour #victoriacorenmitchell

spend the rest of the night hating myself because what the fuck was that
