Werner on Grown-up Anger
Grown-Up Anger: The Connected Mysteries of Bob Dylan, Woody Guthrie, and the Calumet Massacre of 1913
Whether you came to Bob Dylan and Woody Guthrie in 1965 or 2016, Grown-Up Anger will change the way you hear "This Land Is Your Land" and "Like a Rolling Stone." Beginning with the 1913 Calumet Massacre, Daniel Wolff provides a primer on the complicated history of anger, political and personal in American music, one that's never been more needed than it is today. There aren't many cultural histories that read like they've been written for activists and fans. Grown-Up Anger moves to the head of that list. --Craig Werner, Evjue-Bascom Professor of Afro-American Studies, University of Wisconsin-Madison, author of “A Change Is Gonna Come.”
