The Kempters – The Orange Blossom Special
An evening pause: What makes this fun is that the whole front row of fiddlers is actually 14-year-old Chris Kempter, competing against himself for top spot on the band.

Readers!
Please consider supporting my work here at Behind the Black. Your support allows me the freedom and ability to analyze objectively the ongoing renaissance in space, as well as the cultural changes -- for good or ill -- that are happening across America. Fourteen years ago I wrote that SLS and Orion were a bad ideas, a waste of money, would be years behind schedule, and better replaced by commercial private enterprise. Only now does it appear that Washington might finally recognize this reality.
In 2020 when the world panicked over COVID I wrote that the panic was unnecessary, that the virus was apparently simply a variation of the flu, that masks were not simply pointless but if worn incorrectly were a health threat, that the lockdowns were a disaster and did nothing to stop the spread of COVID. Only in the past year have some of our so-called experts in the health field have begun to recognize these facts.
Your help allows me to do this kind of intelligent analysis. I take no advertising or sponsors, so my reporting isn't influenced by donations by established space or drug companies. Instead, I rely entirely on donations and subscriptions from my readers, which gives me the freedom to write what I think, unencumbered by outside influences.
You can support me either by giving a one-time contribution or a regular subscription. There are four ways of doing so:
1. Zelle: This is the only internet method that charges no fees. All you have to do is use the Zelle link at your internet bank and give my name and email address (zimmerman at nasw dot org). What you donate is what I get.
2. Patreon: Go to my website there and pick one of five monthly subscription amounts, or by making a one-time donation.
3. A Paypal Donation or subscription:
4. Donate by check, payable to Robert Zimmerman and mailed to

Sad, the deplatforming on YouTube and their ilk continues….I wonder if the owners decided to limit sharing their video based upon their biases of your website specifically. Why wouldn’t they want it shared to as many people through as many websites possible unless the bias was politically motivated?
Nothing good ever comes from this kind of retaliatory censorship!
?
Jwing: Only with your comment did I discover that the embed won’t play on BtB. I do not think this has anything to do with politics, but their desire to make people visit their youtube website.
This is not as nefarious as it might appear– it is a preference the video-owner can specify, but I’d guess ‘most’ people just don’t. It’s more of a copyright, monetization, and over-control type thing.
–that’s not to say they would not intentionally do it for political purposes, but this is more of a “music thing,” than anything else.
Interestingly, alex jones can still embed & play YouTube videos at his site, but ironically he just can’t upload his content and link back to it.
