Noel Paul Stookey reflects on his decades-long success as a folk singer, how he's raising awareness on important causes.
And Stookey is no stranger to singing for a good cause. The group’s version of "If I Had a Hammer" became an anthem for racial equality. The band famously performed Bob Dylan’s "Blowin’ in the Wind" at the August 1963 March on Washington. They also protested the Vietnam war and joined the fight to improve the working conditions of California’s farmworkers – just to name a few. Stookey spoke to Fox News about releasing "Just Causes," his favorite memory with Peter Yarrow and Mary Travers, the real story behind "Puff the Magic Dragon," and becoming a born-again Christian.More Related News
