 David Rovics: Notes From a Holocaust
We welcome the music voice that has most performed at Community Church of
Boston, as his work and his values are most strikingly in line with
community Church of Boston's Peace and Justice focus. Every time David is
anywhere near Boston, we drop everything to host this phenomenal voice for
our Movement!

David Rovics ( born April 10, 1967) is an American indie singer/songwriter.
His music concerns both topical subjects such as the 2003 Iraq war,
anti-globalization, anarchism, and social justice issues, and also labor
history. Rovics has been an outspoken critic of former President George W.
Bush, the Republican Party, John Kerry, and the Democratic Party.

Rovics is critical of the United States government's policies and claims
that the "U.S. government's foreign policy represents U.S. corporate
interests" and that "the U.S. government does not like democracy either at
home or abroad."[2]

Although some of Rovics' work is not self-published, and much of it is
commercially distributed, Rovics has made all of his recorded music freely
available as downloadable mp3 files. He encourages the free distribution of
his work by all non-profit means to promote his work and spread political
messages, and speaks out against websites or programs like iTunes that
charge money for downloading his songs. Rovics has also advocated the
performing of his songs at protests and demonstrations and has made his
sheet music and lyrics available for download
