I Pity the Country

Originally posted on October 28, 2020

A protest song that everybody needs to hear. Sadly, I suspect few will bother, and it is only preaching to the converted.

“I pity the country
I pity the state
And the mind of a man
Who thrives on hate.
Small are the lives
Of cheats and of liars
Of Bigoted news press
Fascist town criers”

So happy this is finally out! Beautiful short documentary made by Lisa Jackson and Conor McNally featuring Leanne Betasamosake Simpson's version of the iconic #WillieDunn's #IPitytheCountry
It's been a few years since Leanne, Nick Ferrio and I recorded this song after playing it at #NativeNorthAmericanGathering in Ottawa. Miigwech for watching!
