40,000 Norwegians sing Pete Seeger Song to Brevik

[nolabear]

This is so beautiful and hopeful I can hardly watch it. The mass killer Brevik expressed disdain for this Pete Seeger song because it's "Marxist". This is Norway's reply.

8. The Norwegians have shown us the way...

to respond to hatred and racism. There are no cleaner, purer words to do than those of Pete Seeger. He is an American treasure.
