I
realize that the Mormon Tabernacle Choir's Words and Music broadcast
is inspirational in tone, not specifically religious but little could
match the jingoism on display in their Memorial Day presentation
today. Among other things they sang the fight songs of every branch
of the armed service from the West Point Cemetery. One could wish
they were as zealous in promoting the equal rights of:
the
female half of their choir
gay
and lesbians
migrant
farm workers
construction
trades
Blacks
and other ethnic minorities
minimum
wage earners
the
homeless
the
unemployed
the
hungry
the
illiterate
