The Almanac Singers included Pete Seeger! There is a guy that really stuck his neck out for labor.
Let me offer this little ditty with Seeger and Woody Guthrie's son Arlo:

2. I will be looking at your blog tomorrow. Pete Seeger---yes,
he stuck his neck out for labor, as well as for many other causes. He cared about people. I have been moving around on You Tube all evening and keep bumping into him. But then again, folk music has always been my favorite, so you just can't miss him.
