And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

Johnny Cash and June Carter at Folsom Prison on January 13, 1968.
1968. I was 13. We had a neighbor lady that was a spittin' image of June Carter Cash. Every time I saw that lady; Chris Matthews had nutten compared to the thrill up MY leg!!!!!
Not Folsom, but still a California prison. "Haggard approached Cash to say, "I certainly enjoyed your show at San Quentin." Cash responded, "Merle, I don't remember you bein' in that show." Merle's response? "Johnny, I wasn't in the show, I was in the audience."."

ReplyDeleteYou sure this picture wasn't "photoshopped"? All those inmates in the background look like white Anglos.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure the list of things that are simultaneously "fifty years ago" and "just yesterday" is going to get depressingly longer.
ReplyDeleteFor me, I was 15 in '68.
