In 2005 two new schools were built in the town of Great Barrington. Some people in the community thought it would be appropriate to name it for W.E.B. Du Bois, a successful scholar, writer, and civil rights activist, who was also born and attended high school in Great Barrington. This documentary explores the naming of the school, as well as the variety of feelings that exist about Dr. Du Bios in Great Barrington today.

Band: Forefather Song: Three Great Ships Album: Steadfast Genre: Melodic Viking Black Metal / Folk Metal Lyrics: Across the sea they heard the call Blood to spill and gold in hand Charged to flash their deadly steel And defend this fruitful land Straightaway they waged their war And swiftly came the victory And all of those that were left behind Beheld the messengers' sign And the ships filled the shoreline Bound for fame With three great ships they came Riding the waves To the fray They soared across the spray Leading the way Souls aflame They made their masters slaves Destined to reign Foes forlorn A sacred myth was born Wrought a new age With gathering strength and growing will They turned to bite the hand that feeds The worthless host harried and slain From the east to western seas Altars razed by iron and fire The pious slaughtered ruthlessly The survivors fled to cower in the woods For a life of ignominy Or sadly crossed the sea

Lyrics Slaying souls, danse macabre From within and still unscarred I stand alone and solemn as thy distant lights frey to death And all around fore none as demon shall be found Out beneath the azrael Tolling raven of the knell And to my dark angel Whose form too vast to comprehend As demons rise and re-ascend Here is were evenings serenades Amidst the dawn as gracious slaves For my words are without sound Far beyond and well renown Centuries of dusk in time Bleeding shadows of thy shrine Within, thy darkness frey born of kaos in decay Reaping shadows unto thee A gracious death for all to see As infinite avails The human race that never fails Played upon thy calming heart Eyes of terror bleeding hard That I doth control thee Leading southward to the key Hanging from the brances frail Queen of darkness to unveil Where whispers charm thy emptiness And pierce thy tenous membrane That striketh through my anguished heart And tainted skys, where once demons remained As the silent darkness breeding Winters hate in silouettic sky Stained with blood of an ancient slumber With such a passionate melancholy Of ages past and times to come Shall speak in sound and slay in tongues And spirits chanting satans hail As darkness falls unto thy veil Between in death thy black spirit From thy pain we shall commit Sleeping shadows demons fray From beyond in massacre's pain Fore thou art draped in sin Amidst the shadows I have been And seek the silent sentinel On battlefields where they fell Desire rekindles thee Nearer than infinite The dying scent of fragrant death Fore spell of winter I possess That I might dream thy pain Invoke to tee like dragons slain A lullaby like song of grave Caressing shadows, demons slave Thou alone soth se me in this sorrow Fore thou art beautiful, fore thou art bright Flashing thy splendour amidst the midnight Thou canst not flee, mine shalt thou be Of all enchantment Thou shalt a goddess be

a simple discussion becomes a huge paintball fight between Hillary Clinton, McCain, Obama, Romney, Edwards and Huckabee. John Sidney McCain III (born August 29, 1936) is the senior United States Senator from Arizona and presumptive Republican Party nominee for President of the United States in the upcoming 2008 election. McCain's grandfather and father were the first pair of father/son Four-Star admirals in the United States Navy. McCain graduated from the United States Naval Academy in 1958. He became a naval aviator, flying attack aircraft from carriers. During the Vietnam War in 1967, he narrowly escaped death in the Forrestal fire. On his 23rd bombing mission over North Vietnam later in 1967, he was shot down, badly injured, and captured as a prisoner of war by the North Vietnamese. He spent five and a half years as a prisoner of war, including periods of torture, before he was released in accordance with the Paris Peace Accords in 1973. McCain retired from the Navy in 1981 and was elected to the U.S. House of Representatives from Arizona's 1st congressional district in 1982. After serving two terms, he was elected to the U.S. Senate in 1986, winning reelection in 1992, 1998, and 2004. While generally adhering to conservative principles, McCain has established a reputation as a political maverick for his willingness to disagree with his party on several key issues. Surviving the Keating Five scandal of the 1980s, he made campaign finance reform one of his signature concerns, eventually co-sponsoring the Bipartisan Campaign Reform Act in 2002. McCain lost the Republican nomination in the 2000 presidential election to George W. Bush after closely contested battles in several early primary states. In the 2008 presidential election cycle, McCain staged a comeback after his campaign stumbled in mid-2007, and by the end of January 2008, he was the Republican front-runner once again. Following victories in early February and the withdrawal of his closest competitors, McCain gained enough delegates to solidify his status as the presumptive nominee on March 4, 2008. Barack Hussein Obama, Jr. (born August 4, 1961) is the junior United States Senator from Illinois and a candidate for the Democratic Party's nomination in the 2008 U.S. presidential election. He married in 1992 and has two daughters. Obama has written two books: a memoir of his youth titled Dreams from My Father, and The Audacity of Hope, a personal commentary on U.S. politics. Born to a Kenyan father and an American mother, he passed most of his childhood and adolescent years in Honolulu, Hawaii. At age six, he moved to Jakarta where he lived with his mother and Indonesian stepfather for four years. A graduate of Columbia University and Harvard Law School, Obama worked as a community organizer, university lecturer, and lawyer before serving in the Illinois Senate from 1997 to 2004. Following an unsuccessful bid for a seat in the U.S. House of Representatives in 2000, he announced his campaign for U.S. Senate in early 2003. The next year, while still an Illinois state legislator, Obama delivered the keynote address at the Democratic National Convention. He was elected to the U.S. Senate in November 2004 with 70% of the vote. As a member of the Democratic minority in the 109th Congress, he cosponsored legislation to control conventional weapons and to promote greater public accountability in the use of federal funds. He also made official trips to Eastern Europe, the Middle East, and Africa. In the current 110th Congress, he has sponsored legislation regarding lobbying and electoral fraud, climate change, nuclear terrorism, and care for returned U.S. military personnel. Since announcing his presidential campaign in February 2007, Obama has emphasized ending the war in Iraq, increasing energy independence, and providing universal health care as top national priorities.

An English Cowgirl in Brooklyn Jan Bell performs solo and with her Brooklyn based band the Cheap Dates. She also tours with Old timey country Trio The Maybelles. Jan Bell and the cheap dates set out playing in her neighborhood - d.u.m.b.o. by the Brooklyn Bridge as part of her Urban Cowgirl Cabaret Tribute Series, turning old maritime loading docks into Live Music Stages. Pedal Steel, violin, banjo and upright bass would squeeze onto a pick up truck stage outside an iron workers bar that stood there for a century. Singing original country blues, and songs by their honky tonk heroes - three part harmony sailed up above the Brooklyn Queens Expressway, the roof tops, and nyc water towers. Jan grew up in Yorkshire and Nottinghamshire, England, and spent several years on the back roads of north america, learning songs from the rural south and mountain towns. When she first heard the songs of women such as Mother Maybelle, Hazel Dickens and Alice Gerrard - she felt right at home. Wherever she goes, people always ask how come an english girl is singing so many american folk songs? Jan reckons the root of many of the songs she loves, are back in the coal mining country side where she was born and raised.
