Below is Natalie Merchant speaking,
Hello,
I've just come home from a trip to Boston where I was involved in the most exhilarating recording session. Several months ago I was approached by a non-profit policy research organization affiliated with the University of Massachusetts. Their project was this: they would send me a handful of demos of original songs written and performed by musicians who are currently or had been homeless. I was to choose one song and collaborate with it's author in the studio and the track would be included in benefit album and documentary film intended to raise awareness about the issue of homelessness in the United States.
I was so impressed by the artists and their work and suggested inviting as many as I could to the session. The song I picked was written by Nichole Cooper while she was homeless at the age of 15. The lyrics killed me with their directness ("we needed money bad and I couldn't find a job / so I went around looking for someone to rob"). Hearing such a young girl sing of that experience convinced me that people needed to hear her story.
From the demo, I was able to pick five other singers from the Boston area (Mighty Sam McClain, Cheryl Middleton, Weeping Willie Robinson and Julia Tripp) in addition to two guitar players from Washington state, Montreville M. Blakely Jr. and Chris Holzer. The rhythm section was provided graciously by Andrew Barr on drums and Marc Friedman on bass from the Boston based group The Slip. Elizabeth Steen volunteered to play organ, you may recognize her from years of our touring and recording together. Q-Division studios in Boston generously discounted their rates for us and engineer Matthew Ellard (who had recorded my portions of the Billy Bragg / Wilco "Mermaid Avenue" records) was the skilled and able man at the controls.
I want to thank everyone involved, the four days we spent together yielded an incredible recording of the song, "There is No Good Reason" that is powerfully moving, honest and soulful[b]. I'll let you know when the album, "GIVE US YOUR POOR / Montreville Blakely made this change in correction of facts- 01-2009" will be released on Appleseed Recordings. Other well known artists who have contributed to the project so far are: Bruce Springsteen, Dan Zanes, Danny Glover, Bill Janowitz, Jewel,( and many more / Montreville Blakely made this change in correction of facts). There was also a film crew in the studio and the documentary that they are making has a trailer that can be seen at : (" www.giveusyourpoor.org "- titled; " IT FEELS LIKE HOME " produced by John McGah and Nils Gums. / Montreville Blakely made this change in correction of facts).
During the sessions in Boston, we were honored with a visit and conversation with a man who has been a long-time hero of mine, the author Jonathan Kozol (also a member of the "Give Us Your Poor" advisory board). Since he began writing about his experiences teaching at an inner city public school (in Boston's Roxbury neighborhood) with his first book, "Death at an Early Age" (1968) he has been one of the most persistent voices in America addressing the inequities of our public education system. "Savage Inequalities" (1991) and last year's "The Shame of the Nation" expose the system of institutionalized discrimination. It was his book "Rachel and Her Children - Homeless Families in America" (1988) that I read when I first moved from my hometown to New York City and struggled to come to terms with the hopelessness I found on the streets. Because of Jonathan Kozol's book, I volunteered to work in a day care center in a homeless shelter in Harlem. I wasn't the only one thanking Mr. Kozol for the changes in my life that his books had brought, Julia Tripp (formerly homeless 11 years) explained that she had been a student in the very same school that Jonathan had taught in back in 1968 and that, "Until I read your book, I always thought it was my fault."
Its a project being put together by the same person who put together the Pete Seeger Tribute Album and its to aid the Homeless. He told me about Bruce doing it and also was taking credit for the whole Seegers Sessions project!

Dr. Martin L. King will always live on in the lives of the captives set free. He is a true man of spirit and gave the only life he had known to better mankind.
I truly know how it feels to see first hand about America's Homeless Population and Impoverished Families. Give me the chance to be whealthy, and I will build a Yurt City. This City will have a central Pow Wow Creation Hall, an Administration Building for Job Research and a Special Temporary Job Services. It will answer the; 2 Years Income Tax Return, 6 months on a job, and 20% down- in enabeling
one to purchase a dwelling place. The shelter would be for a stay of 2 1/2 - 5 years - while saving 1/3 - 1/2 the clients Net Income for the duration of stay. The community commerce would be invited to help the clients for reduced rates in purchases on a sliding scale pending on assets in monthly income. This would answer the short and long term effect towards economic recovery solutions. Feel free to use my Idea as yours in kind. Your friend, Montreville Blakely

So many say so many things out here..., few take the time required to polish
the precious stones in their lives. Talent, gifts and wisdom go hand in hand
in what we do as musicians. People sometimes rely on their fame or social graces in order to manipulate further success. Fame and money can ruin some, while fame and money in the right hands can nurish the rest for fuller lives. Some of us share our hearts with others!

Hi all, it's me/Montreville,
This is my great hello- I'm a student at Ashford University in Social and Criminal Justice, aspiring to be a Conflict Resolution Attorney or in other words/ a modern day peace maker at the table. Hopefully I can catch bad manners in foriegners and equally within our own government, before war breaks out. Peace making is like finding common ground between advisaries. Finding resolutions is like finding gold. Thanks All
Hopefully one day Mexico and the other smaller Countries will be able to become a State of the United States..., this would open our borders and keep our security safe- not to mention all the Border Guard Expenses critiqued at The Panama Canal, where we need
to be the most. Just think of it as our West Coast Florida, a place for the West Coast Snowbirds. The video below shows us the Heart and Soul of just one migrant worker.
