Women folksingers give
concert tonight at CCPA
By PETER DU RYE A
Of the Emerald
Tonight Ruthie Gordon and Jeanne
Mackey will be singing in concert at
the WOW Hall. Both have relatively
obscured careers when contrasted to
the amplified world of rock and roll,
yet both Gordon and Mackey are
known for creating an unusually
strong rapport with the audience.
Ruthie Gordon sings without any
accompaniment about discovering
who you are instead of what everyone
wants you to be. She grew up near
Chicago and began to sing when she
got involved in the peace and civil
rights movements. She has sung at
prisons, union meetings, women s
conferences, anti-war rallies and
schools.
In between traditional folk songs
from all around the world, songs
about being a woman or strip mining
coal in Appalachia she talks to the
audience as if we were old friends,
without the aid of a mike, if at ail pos
sible.
Gordon said, “In the past lots of
things have kept me from singing, and
it's my hope that these songs will help
you to overcome some of those things
in your life and find the music inside of
you. None of us will be able to fully
realize that potential till al of us have
fought for and won our liberation. But I
know that singing helps to
strengthen us for that fight, and this is
a part of my contribution. Sing and
fight and fight to win!"
Although they both are deeply
committed to their music, that is as
educating as it is entertaining, they
have never appeared onstage to
gether or even met. Cinema Unido
and the Mayday Cultural Committee
have joined forces to present what
they've termed as "Music for chang
ing times."
Jeanne Mackey believes in build
ing people's culture and she sings
about the struggle and celebration of
women, labour and minorities.
An example of her effectiveness
was aptly described by Jim Dugan,
former President of Pressman’s Local
6, Washington D.C., ‘The powerful
Washington Post Corporation has
used a number of weapons to try to
wear down our morale and break our
16 month strike. There ate a number
of secret weapons we have to keep
us going. One of the best has been
the music of Jeanne Mackey.”
Operating from D.C. Mackey's
songs often incorporate personal
nurishment into collective strength.
Her activities have been widely varied
and too numerous to mention but one
of the more interesting is a workshop
that she helped lead on the rewriting
of sexist songs.
She plays piano and her guitar
solos have been described as "talcing
hands."
Childcare will be provided for
tonight's concert which begins at 7 30
p.m. at the Community Center for the
Performing Arts, Eighth and Lincoln.
Admission is $3.
Hoohaw
(Continued from Page 1)
The location for this year’s Hoohaw is in and around Mac Court.
A matter of utmost importance this year is the smoking situation
inside Mac Court. Face it folks, the building is a fire hazard just sitting
there, let alone approached by a lit match or cigarette. Use of the
building has been obtained only after much assurance from the
Northwest Review and the Intrepid Trips Society for Aesthetic Re
volutionary Training (ITS ART), co-sponsors of the Hoohaw, concern
ing the control of smoking inside the building. So please don’t.
The fire marshal has the power, rather the obligation, to close
down the building for the use of anything, cultural, sports, whatever, if
he deems it unsafe for use. Be assured the fire people will be there, so
it s imperative for the future of any event big enough to require the use
of Mac Court that no smoking be permitted inside the building. Outside
is your business.
Sermon over. Enjoy the Hoohaw. That’s what it’s there for.
Tickets are $5 for Two and are available at the EMU Main Desk.
