Happy New Year, everyone. So how about the 'People's Republic of China' removing the Goddess of Democracy statue in the name of 'national security'? Whose security? The Dictators' security! Then again, how much can we boast, having had a leader deny the validity of America's sacred vote? The Left too has gone astray,
knocking down even busts of Grant, who led the liberating Union Army.

A Late May Meditation

Glad Trump’s gone.

Glad Trump's gone.
Glad Trump’s gone.
It’s Bob Dylan’s Birthday
and I’m glad Trump’s gone.
Been a year since George Floyd
was cut off from the dawn.
It’s George Floyd’s Memorial.
I’m glad Trump’s gone.
No more muttering on Twitter.
Or abolishing health care.
No more letting gas emissions
foul the sanctity of air.
Glad Trump’s gone.
Yes, I’m glad Trump’s gone.
No more raids on the Capital
by vandals sharing selfies.
No denials of the mail-in votes
to benefit the wealthy.
Glad Trump’s gone.
Glad Trump’s gone.
It’s Bobbie Dylan’s eightieth
Been a year since George Floyd died.
Dylan’s legacy of protest seats him
right at George Floyd’s side
And I’m glad Trump’s gone
who called protest socialism.
Glad he’s gone away.
With his wall and tunnel vision
Glad Trump’s gone.
Glad Trump’s gone.

The Electric Pow-Wow Press condemns the Georgia attempt to block and restrict VOTING RIGHTS for American citizens! The same people who insisted that the Demagogue Trump won the 2020 election, and some of the same people who invaded the Capitol to invalidate the legitimate result of voting (Trump's defeat), are now adding new burdens to voter eligibility. This is to keep poor people and minorities from voting so guys like Trump and his friend Putin can rule forever (God Forbid)!!!

This is actually a suitable Lenten meditation and Passover reflection. It's what we didn't do for others that makes us feel alone in the end. . .

The Electric Pow-Wow Press condemns the hatred and prejudice against Asians throughout history and now. The great contributions of Asian cultures in terms of medicine and religion are of paramount importance world ‘round.

In the Fifties and Sixties, young Americans, Beatniks, and Hippies were profoundly influenced by Zen concepts, acupuncture, and other Asian methodologies. Having said that, extremists on the other side are wrong to scapegoat Western European culture in Europe or the USA.

The Electric Pow-Wow Press does not support anti-democratic factions, either on the right or the left, especially misguided moralists.

It is not necessarily comfortable.

“I do not know when it happened, but we have forgotten death, even at Halloween; we forgot it long before Mary Shelly and her soon-to-be husband swapped ghost stories with Lord Byron and an exiled Italian physician on a dark and stormy Swiss vacation.

Modernity, at least for well-to-do Westerners, was a deathless world, dedicated to progress, baptized in prosperity. While the poor and the brown were swimming in cholera and colonialism, bourgeois innocence fluttered about her golden cage; but she was so vulnerable."

Returning to the Art of Letter-Writing During a Pandemic
By Mary Fox, Ph.D.

EXCERPT - read the whole article in the 10th issue of The Electric Pow-Wow Press!

"I was shocked to learn six years ago when I became a public high school teacher, that I should not write in cursive on the whiteboards or in feedback notes on students’ papers, because they had not been taught cursive and did not know how to read it! I had to make myself write in Elementary block-letters or else the class would start complaining loudly.

I was ashamed of an education system that would let graduating seniors not know how to sign their name on application forms. Some high school teachers in my school who shared my concerns, had printed out handouts with cursive letters for students to trace with colored pencils as fun extra work for those who completed classwork early. The hope was that many of our students might at least learn how to write their signature in cursive."

The Electric Pow-Wow Press condemns the attack on the Capitol today by thugs waving Confederate flags and denying the results of the Election. George Harrison says it best:

Have you seen the little piggies
Crawling in the dirt?
And for all the little piggies
Life is getting worse,
Always having dirt to play around in

Have you seen the bigger piggies
In their starched white shirts?
You will find the bigger piggies
Stirring up the dirt,
Always have clean shirts to play around in

In their styes with all their backing
They don't care what goes on around
In their eyes there's something lacking
What they need's a damn good whacking

Everywhere there's lots of piggies
Living piggy lives
You can see them out for dinner
With their piggy wives
Clutching forks and knives to eat the bacon

One of our subscribers, Douglas Bodamer, has passed. He was a great man with a great sense of humor. Also, he was a photographer for the Distant Drummer, a Philadelphia underground newspaper in the early seventies. REST IN PEACE, DOUG!!!

“These feasts of the midwinter solstice rely on the commonality of our biophysical lives, on our shared weaknesses and needs. Our gifts, our talents, our material possessions, our histories separate us. They differentiate us from our fellow humans, but the Divine illumination of the midwinter feasts do not amplify these distinctions. Instead, they minimize them by highlighting our mortality and the necessity we all feel to transcend death, disappointment, and brutal lack.

We’re all in this rotten moment together. And so, Christmas incorporates the outsiders – the pagan Persian priests become the gift giving Magi. The hijabed outlander becomes a sexy Santa. The homeless beggar becomes an angel of God.“ ~James Fox, EPP 9 -Christmas

A Non-Comformist may yet be humble.

If God came in the flesh, anything is possible, even a world of communes and councils, instead of our current state of affairs.

An Anarchist’s Christmas Carol

The Lord was born
in Bethlehem,
the masses stomped on idols.
The shepherds claimed
their share of earth
with melodies
so bridal.
A Child praised by the poor
showed up at morning’s shore,
brought hope to thief and w***e.
Tra la la la la, la la la la!
Farewell to central hierarchies.
Goodbye to crooked measures.
No greedy fallen goddesses
or galleons with treasures.
The gold belonged to all!
A Child was born to all!
All governments did fall!
Tra la la la la, la la la la!
The Lord was born
in Bethlehem.
The wisemen followed thinking:
why was He born among the beasts
inside the cave a’ stinking?
Cooperatives break bread!
The black, the white, the red.
The living with the dead.
The world no earthly head!
Tra la la la la, la la la la!

Welcome everyone to the Official page
for the Electric Pow-Wow Press!

Merry Christmas, Happy Chanukah, Happy Winter, Happy Holidays!

We feel as though we crash-landed here in cyberspace from another planet. We are from another era, another world, indeed, fifty years before the pandemic.

This is a new manifestation for us, a new avatar. This is our new way of saying hello and goodbye to you in the course of life’s journey, as we are all fellow travelers. We have come as explorers to a new land, bringing lessons from the Sixties Cultural Revolution, the Black Power Movement, and Working Class struggles, along with memories from America’s Tribal Pre-existence...
