“All skin folks ain’t kin folks ; and, all pale beings ain’t hell-beings.” — in an era of history where DEMOCACY ITSELF is endangered world wide, we would all be well served to realize: “All skin folks ain’t king folk; and all pale beings ain’t hell-beings.”
The only possibility for saving Democracy is coalition building across racial, gender, religious, economic, and political lines with the conscious intention of saving Democracy so that we all can fight about it later.
The danger of being TRIBAL in a GLOBAL world is the possibility of Global Thermonuclear Annihilation — an Existential Vampire that has found a way to gather its ashes; reattach its severed head; remove the stake from its heart; and anoint these remains with the blood of the Ukrainian People — who are currently fighting a proxy war for our freedom.
We can all be a little bigger; or we can all be cinders scattered on a cinder. If we can’t fight the raging fires caused by climate change and the environmental damage of the earth 🌍; then I’m pretty sure we don’t have a solution for the fires caused by tactical nuclear weapons.

Youngin, you better listen to this old man and learn; you can’t fight every battle by yourself: “All skin folks ain’t kin folk; and all pale beings ain’t hell-beings.” We all need each other; and we all need allies.

She was a workplace folk hero who had some impressive write-ups, righteous confrontations, refusals to obey absurd rules, a foul mouth at the perfect times, occasional meltdowns and a talent for ferreting out avoidant bosses; she also possessed a colorful selection of anti-workplace socks that many found supportive and hilarious.

Get the workplace folk hero mug.Folk punk is a genre of music that combines elements of folk and punk rock music. There are two distinct types of folk punk. The first is artists like The Knitters - punk music musicians who play in a traditional folk style. There are also modern artists who perform acoustically in the folk style, this is the "riotfolk" genre.
Like much punk music in general, folk-punk tends to be quite political, most often on the radical left and anarchist side of the spectrum. Folk punk is seen as exploring the legacy of traditional American folk music, which often contained themes of working class solidarity and community resistance facing the encroaching problems of industrialization and modern capitalism. Classic folk songs such as "This Land is Your Land" and "Sixteen Tons" have been covered by folk punk bands.
While the genre has grown greatly recently, much credit to the establishment of folk punk has gone to Plan It X Records of Bloomington, Indiana for helping popularize the sound. Many staple folk punk bands are either currently on the label or have previously had some connection to it. Among these are Against Me! - perhaps the best known folk punk band - although their sound has been moving more and more towards general punk rock and has moved away from the DIY (do it yourself) ethic that is central to the genre. However, some of these bands don't actually have any real relation to (or even sound like) actual folk music. The only relation could be pointed at the use of "obscure" instruments (or instruments hardly used in punk rock) like a violin, banjo, or a mandolin. Other notable folk-punk labels and bands include This Bike Is A Pipe Bomb, Fistolo Records, (Philadelphia, PA) and The Riot-Folk! Collective
Other locations significant to the folk punk scene are Athens, Ga and Gainesville, Fl (the birth place of Against Me!). There are also a few folk-punk acts from the northeast such as Bread and Roses, The Can Kickers, Evan Greer, and Sharp Teeth, all from the greater Boston area. Also, Salt Lake City, UT has a large folk punk scene with bands such as Bombs and Beating Hearts, James Miska, xacrox and xJoshx. The scene is also taking shape in Toronto, Canada with artists such as Timothy Cameron, and the collective based band PondScum, in DC with artists like Spoonboy and Rachel Jacobs, and Ohio, with the very popular band Defiance, Ohio (also involved with plan-it-x.)
Other significant folk punk artists and bands include ArnoCorps, Erik Petersen, Mischief Brew, xacrox, Chris Fredda, Madeline Adams, The Heroic Livers, bombs and beating hearts, "Defiance, Ohio", Ghost Mice, Saw Wheel, Rumbleseat, Spoonboy, ,Tennessee Whiskey Tots, and the artists involved in the Riot-Folk! Collective.
A symbol commonly used by the folk punk music scene is the anarchy heart. This is similar to the anarchy symbol except that instead of the A being set in a circle it is set within a heart. This symbolises "love is freedom" while the A within an O symbolises "anarchy is order". This may have originated in northern Florida.
