I am waging a losing battle against a raccoon. It has managed to undo bungee cords & as you can see from the footprints it seems to enjoy pure cayenne pepper. I installed a motion based alarm that flashes lights....did nothing.
I've got a raccoon on an endorphin high that likes raves. Send help.
Living Colour plays NPR Tiny Desk! One of my fav bands of all time, their albums were an absolute revelation to my teenage self. Vivid, Time's Up, and Stain are classics, and their songs taught me about social issues and history that I definitely wasn't taught in rural KY. They should be in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.

Hey #librarians - I'm doing research for an upcoming show, and looking for examples of protest signs from the American Folk tradition...Woodie Guthrie, Pete Seeger, Dylan, Joan Baez. So spanning from WWII thru the early 1960's.
Anyone have a resource they can point me at?
