Pete Seeger is another white man who fought for the cause of civil rights in America, and he was one of the top pillars of inspiration during that time. Many of his songs aimed to lift spirits and provide hope for the black community. One such song is "Turn! Turn! Turn!" as performed by The Byrds:
The song speaks of how there is an end to everything, including and especially the time of hatred and racism that Civil Rights activists were trying to pull America out of. Pete Seeger wrote with many undercurrents of civil rights, but the message was always strong.
