Mark Steyn writes on a lot more than just on politics. He also knows a great deal about popular music having once worked as a disc jockey before becoming a musical theatre critic. On his blog today he has written a most interesting piece on the history of a song with which we are all very familiar. Turns out it originated with a South African Zulu and was brought to the world's attention by Leftist hypocrite Pete Seeger. As to why Seeger is a hypocrite, that is part of the story. It is a longish piece but the sort of thing that captivates me, so I share it here.
