The Future they Imagined: Daniel Kahn
Folk-punk Yiddishist Daniel Kahn speaks beautifully about community creation, autonomous cultural zones, and future-gazing.“It helps me to sing songs about the future that people back then imagined. In doing that, you can uncover all of these dreams that people had that didn’t come to fruition - and that didn’t mean that they were bad dreams. It didn’t mean that they were false hopes. A lot of those dreams were useful to the present.”Support the Show.
