What's Going On ::

Here’s one for the collection of poignant musical irony. Paul Ford crashes a Republican party:

A marching band, all African-American teens, filed in and dutifully began playing. The Republicans mostly ignored the band. The band’s second song was “What’s Going On” by Marvin Gaye. As the sousaphones tooted, I recited the lyrics to myself.

Oh my father, father
We don’t need to escalate
You see war is not the answer
For only love can conquer hate
