Last fall, when the biopic Deliver Me from Nowhere<\/em> <\/a>was released, I wrote two articles about Bruce Springsteen.<\/p>\n

One consisted of my interviews with the director of the film Scott Cooper and Springsteen himself for the Italian magazine Best Movie. Read English version at this link<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"\"The second article for Cultural Daily was about my personal experience with Bruce Springsteen\u2019s songs and his political outspokenness during his Land of Hope and Dreams<\/em> tour. Read it here<\/a>.
\n\u201cThe America I love is currently in the hands of a corrupt, incompetent, and treasonous administration.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"For that reason I was not going to write about the same topic again, but after last night\u2019s performance of \u201cthe Boss\u201d at the Forum, I felt I have to do it.<\/p>\n

Immediately after the murders of Ren\u00e9e Good and Alex Pretti by ICE agents, Bruce wrote the song \u201cStreets of Minneapolis<\/a>\u201d where he mentions the victims by name.

\n\u201cKing Trump\u2019s private army from the DHS, came to Minneapolis to enforce the law.\u201d
\n\u201cWe\u2019ll take a stand for this land.\u201d
\n\u201cWe\u2019ll remember the names of those who died.\u201d<\/p>\n

As reported today in the LA Times, Springsteen said last night in Los Angeles:
\n\u201cIf you\u2019re feeling helpless, hopeless, betrayed, frustrated, angry, I know that I\u2019ve been.\u201d
\n\u201cThis White House is destroying the American idea and our reputation around the world.\u201d
\n\u201cThese are hard times, but we\u2019ll make it through. Americans do the right thing after they\u2019ve tried everything else.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"Variety wrote that the previous night Springsteen said:
\n\u201cTo many, we are no longer looked upon as \u2018the land of the free and the home of the brave.\u2019 America is now a reckless, unpredictable, predatory rogue nation.\u201d
\n\u201cSo many of our elected leaders have failed us that this American tragedy can only be stopped by the American people. So join us.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
