BORN TO GROOVE
One of the advantages of this website is that you can dip into it anywhere and find something to play, sing or dance. Audio and Video play-alongs. Enjoying watching and listening — there are many clips and tracks from which to choose. Children can learn to drum, sing and dance all-at-the-same-time if we play with them in that way. It may not take much coaching or prompting for children to reinvent a child culture that includes evolving drum-song-dance styles. borntogroove.com TRUTH AND TRADITIONS
This is the companion website to the book We Need a Department of Peace. War is not a natural disaster. It is a manmade disaster, directed and carried out by ordinary people, who are hired and paid by other ordinary people, to make war. It will stop when ordinary people decide that, whatever satisfactions and rewards war may have offered in the past, the risk is now too high and the return too low. If you are ready to invest in a new and exciting American enterprise, you can start by spending an hour telling your Congressman why you want a Department of Peace.Includes comprehensive blog and list of resources. truthandtraditionsparty.org MUSIC GROOVES
