HISTORY OF THE SONG "YOU CAN'T KILL THE SPIRIT": CONVERSATION WITH THE COMPOSER

 

As we approach the 36th anniversary of the emergence of the nearly twenty year long anti-nuclear Greenham Commons Women's Peace Camp, Desiree Hellegers interviews Portland singer-songwriter Naomi Little Bear Morena about the life cycle of her song, "You can't kill the spirit," which was repeatedly sung and performed at Greenham, and most recently at the Women's March this past January.
