Cabaret – Married
An evening pause: Performed by Grayson Samuels, Bella Coppola, and Anna Rose Daugherty at Texas State University.
Hat tip Diane Zimmerman, who decided to find a version of this for an evening pause after we watched the 1972 movie Cabaret one evening. The film and play portrayed bluntly the decadence of Germany before World War II, a decadence that led directly to Nazi rule. Watching it now is somewhat horrifying, as it now accurately portrays the dominate and decadent leftist culture of America today. I watched and wondered if we Americans will have the courage and sense of morality to fight back and stop the kind of evils such decadence always leads to.
This song however is simply lovely, and illustrates the larger strength of the musical itself.
On Christmas Eve 1968 three Americans became the first humans to visit another world. What they did to celebrate was unexpected and profound, and will be remembered throughout all human history. Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8, Robert Zimmerman's classic history of humanity's first journey to another world, tells that story, and it is now available as both an ebook and an audiobook, both with a foreword by Valerie Anders and a new introduction by Robert Zimmerman.
The print edition can be purchased at Amazon or from any other book seller. If you want an autographed copy the price is $60 for the hardback and $45 for the paperback, plus $8 shipping for each. Go here for purchasing details. The ebook is available everywhere for $5.99 (before discount) at amazon, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit. If you buy it from ebookit you don't support the big tech companies and the author gets a bigger cut much sooner.
The audiobook is also available at all these vendors, and is also free with a 30-day trial membership to Audible.
"Not simply about one mission, [Genesis] is also the history of America's quest for the moon... Zimmerman has done a masterful job of tying disparate events together into a solid account of one of America's greatest human triumphs."--San Antonio Express-News

Robert asked: “I watched and wondered if we Americans will have the courage and sense of morality to fight back and stop the kind of evils such decadence always leads to.”
Um, no. As the last three years have proven.
‘I will sell my birthright for a minimum-wage job.’
‘I do not want to be inconvenienced.’
‘I will follow government orders, even when I know they do not make sense and are not effective.’
‘My needs and wants trump all others. Others must bow to my will.’
Dissent?
It may be too late. Biden is transferring all of America’s military technology to China via Ukraine. Have you seen the videos of the godless Chicom commies rounding up their citizens due to “COVID” and locking them in buildings to starve, and beating to death with shovels the pets the people left behind? If they do that to their own citizens think what they’ll do to us.

Congress just authorized Biden to transfer virtually any weapon of war, other than a nuclear weapon, to Ukraine. Insane!

Mr. Zimmerman’s blinkered assessment makes me wonder if perhaps he’s trying a tad too hard in assigning cultural degradation to only one segment of American culture.
Seems to me that our country can’t begin to recover what’s been lost until we are willing to take the hard look at all of American culture. Plenty of decay to go around…
David,
“Seems to me that our country can’t begin to recover what’s been lost until we are willing to take the hard look at all of American culture. Plenty of decay to go around…”
I agree. Although,
… “take the hard look at all of American culture. ”
We no longer have any “Culture”, only society, a sad and decaying society.
Alex and all: I once again suggest my readers make the effort to read Conscious Choice. I say this because it describes exactly the right things any robust culture must have, and that America once had robustly.
We can still rebuild that. We just need to know what is required, and I myself only discovered that in researching and writing the book.

Hammer, meet nail. The thing about a ‘multi-cultural’ society, is the ‘society’ part. Culture is a shared zeitgeist; society is a bunch of people living together. American culture is a pariah in it’s own land. Maybe time for a new land. We’ll take the deserts and wastelands, and in 10 years, people will be coming to us.
