Pete Seeger interview in San Diego 1965

June 10, 1965
One of America’s most controversial folk singers, Pete Seeger, performed at the Civic Theater here last night while pickets marched outside. Among the placards were some that read: Ban Reds from Community Buildings, Pete Seeger Admits Use of Red Propaganda in his folk music. Leaflets referring to alleged Communist connections of Seeger were distributed by the San Diego Patriotic society, whose president, Jack Childres, was represented at the demonstration by Duncan Clark, director of operations for San Diego Youth for Christ. After last night’s concert, I asked Seeger what he stood for-what he was trying to get across in his folk music. Harold Keen interview.
