We also tour her monastic bedroom, explore her “occult holy western baroque gospel” originals, and admire the self-styling of our very own "student body president of the rejects."

Guided by her writings, interviews & "song talks," we explore her congregational coalition politics, revolutionary organizing through song, transformative contributions as a culture worker at the Smithsonian & Highlander, and clarity of vision that was the backbone of everything she did.

Then we ponder the concept of "the singer songwriter" and go off the rails a little as we grapple w/ the role and efficacy of protest songs in our current political hellscape. In the mix: Tiktok-ification, mass movements, hopelessness and hope, the violence of the state, and the songs of the people.

We deep dive into her writing and the way she translates emotion and experience into song, detouring to talk mental health advocacy, Valley of the Dolls, Catholicism and more. As a wise man (Sarah Bachman) once said, you will love Dory Previn if you've ever really snapped!

We discuss the film's moody representation of the Greenwich Village folk scene and the flattened renderings of its women, the protagonist's "bleak circle of failure," and the hero's journey of the cat Ulysses—and consider where it ranks on our "golden dulcimer" scale of folk music films.
