From http://www.afterquakemusic.com In May 2008 an earthquake devastated Sichuan province in China, killing tens of thousands and leaving millions homeless. To commemorate the one year anniversary of this tragedy, musicians Abigail Washburn and Dave Liang of the Shanghai Restoration Project traveled to Sichuan to make music with children who survived the earthquake and their parents. Using folk songs sung by the children as well as sounds of their parents rebuilding their houses with bricks and mortar, Abby and Dave created a unique musical soundscape, and this video shows how the whole process unfolded in March, 2009.
To see hear more of the music, see pictures from the project and to learn more about how to support Sichuan Quake Relief please visit http://afterquakemusic.com

China today is advancing at a breakneck pace. China has a booming automotive industry, has growing Telecommunications companies, has an aerospace industry. Oh, did I mention the Chinese are in the space race now? The only thing China needs is a steady flow of energy. As the USA stirrs up a hornets nest in the Middle East, she eyes suspiciously at China's push into Africa.
American economy falters because the mismanagement of Monetary and Foreign policy of the government. The USA spends $400-500 billion annually on upgrading her military and maintaining her Global hegemony. That military expenditure is more than Russia, China, France, UK and Germany combined. USA suffers financial problems not because of China, USa suffers from unemployment and shipment of jobs overseas because of overspending by US gov't.
Such a great no-nonsense short film, I almost see the beautiful and caring hearts behind those cameras ...just those simple things...thank you people!!!
