This is literally precisely the in-depth article I’ve been dying to read. I love folk music (we listened to Pete Seeger, Dylan, Joan Baez, and Judy Collins nonstop at my extremely progressive elementary school), and the music and values have been a pivotal part of my life. And the Diamonds & Rust reference is perfection.
