For more than 60 years, he performed powerful songs and lent his energies to causes he believed in, from labor struggles to environmentalism. Seeger fell in love with the banjo at age 16, at a folk festival in North Carolina. Moses Asch recorded Seeger for more than 50 records for Folkways Records. His series American Favorite Ballads taught a whole generation of young Americans the great American folk songs. Seeger's activism led him to the South, where he marched with Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., and to a river clean-up in New York. He wrote songs against the Vietnam War and participated in re-working the hymn “I Will Overcome” into the iconic anthem “We Shall Overcome.” Join @smithsonianfolkways' celebration by recording yourself singing or playing a Seeger tune.
