YES. I think that this is a good idea! 
However, let's make sure we don't alienate the younger generations (who grew 
up with the likes of Billy Bragg and the Clash, for example, whose songs are 
laced withvitrolic-yet-intelligent protests of their own). Some of us only 
remember the 60's as a time of diapers, tricycles and our parents shooing us 
outside so we wouldn't see the war coverage on TV... but definitely let's at 
least 
make it an optional sharing circle or something next year.

BTW, my first Hava Nashira rocked! It is still having an impact on me as I 
type. Thanks to everyone who made it possible.
