This week Saturday Classic is a classic and with a good message it features Graham Nash’s song “Teach Your Children,”I think it says it all. I know it’s valentine’s Day but no love songs from me. Only you need to have a code you live by. Love is a good one.
The video is a collaboration between Graham Nash and celebrated filmmaker and animator Jeff Scher.
The imagery frames the youth-led liberal activism of 2018 against the backdrop of the Civil Rights Movement and Peace demonstrations of the 1960’s, providing a powerful visual aid to Graham Nash’s relevant-as-ever appeal to teach not only our children but also our parents well.
“I wrote Teach Your Children because we have much to teach them. Conversely, I believe we as parents have much to learn from them as well. I think that Jeff Scher did a wonderful job of animating my lyrics and positioning the song in a contemporary setting.” – Graham Nash (2018)
