Amy Goodman features the legacy of Pete Seeger in this week’s podcast. Hear recordings of his music and interviews, including ones he gave in the Democracy Now! studio.

“If Aaron Swartz were alive, he’d be on the front lines, fighting against a world in which governments observe, collect, and analyze our every digital action,” writes the organizers of The Day We Fight Back, calling for action on Feb. 11. 

Amy Goodman discusses Swartz’s case and a new film out about him in her weekly podcast.

His brother, Noah Swartz, tells her: “I think Aaron’s message that we can all take with us is that … we can see the change we want to see in the world by participating, rather than feeling helpless and useless.”

In this week’s podcast, Amy Goodman suggests:

“As the Obama family heads to their annual summer vacation on Martha’s Vineyard, perhaps the president should take along a copy of "Catch-22” for some beach reading. Joseph Heller’s classic, satirical antiwar novel, published in 1961 and based on his experiences as a bombardier in the second world war, is sadly relevant today, as Obama’s wars, in Afghanistan and beyond, drag on.“

Her weekly podcast is also published as a column, which you can read here: http://www.democracynow.org/blog/category/weekly_column.

What book do you think President Obama should read while on vacation?
