My humble musical tribute to the great Zimbabwean poet/folk-rocker Thomas Mapfumo. Obviously, I was fed up with the din of whining coming from my fellow 'citizens' the day I penned this call to arms!
As a working artist–and having taken the usual accompanying vow of poverty–I and my family have been able to benefit to some extent from Vermont's generous healthcare access plans. We believe that everyone should have the same and better access to care.
