1971 Vietnam Protest with Pete Seeger, Barbara Dane, Rev. Kirkpatrick

There was alot of press about Pete Seeger singing at the Lincoln Memorial a few weeks ago for Obama's inaugural concert. Here's some footage of Pete performing 38 years earlier at the other end of the Washington mall, at the steps of the Captial, protesting the war in Vietnam. Performing with him is Barbara Dane and the Reverend Frederick Douglas Kirkpatrick (aka Brother Kirk).

Songs include "Last Train to Nürnberg", "Insubordination" and "Everybody's Got a Right to Live".
