By LDDr Will Kaufman’s exploration of Woody Guthrie’s freedom songs on Monday was fantastic. The crowd that gathered in Studio 1 of De Montfort University’s PACE building were treated to a wonderful performance from an exceptionally good guitarist.
Kaufman intertwined brilliantly performed versions of Woody’s songs with his extensive knowledge of his life and changing political stance. From an upbringing as the son of a KKK mob lynching father to becoming an anti-racism activist.
What a great way to start Cultural Exchanges week in Leicester.
