Irish Catholic Boy

Here is a contribution to what I think is to the betterment of the common good by one of our colleagues, with the help of his band, Seanchaí and the Unity Squad, his family and friends.

"If you're somebody who likes hip-hop, Irish folk and rock, R&B, reggae/ska, protest anthems, and real phone calls to prank radio hosts, you are about to consume a casserole of cultures that will soon make Seanchaí and the Unity Squad a staple on your musical menu."

This song, however, is more of meaty helping of solidarity stew with side of Liberation Theology - That, and besides the references to sister Sandinista, makes me feel their sound on this album shows definite the influences of Joe Strummer and the 80's Clash, and in their commitment to confronting racism, classism and oppression. The whole CD is great, check it out.

The link then to development and even a school of thought in theology are obvious, but I also want to talk about in a future post how You Tube, My Space, Facebook, Meet Up, many services provided by Google, and even Ebay's Skype, which are all for profit companies can be used to benefit the not-for-profits and the nongovernmental organizations. In the meantime take a break and listen to Chris and the band play.
