In Their Words: "We are the warriors, the Pilgrims, the Migrant Workers, and the Hopeful who are out there discovering the bravery that lives in day-to-day North America. Lost on the land where we charge out into the darkness and race past the headlights of the drunk drivers who killed Johnny Horton and Clarence White. We feel the legends of the land all around. We pass through time and visit the shrines. We crawl through the dirt, overturning rocks, looking for the nails that were used to hang our heroes to their crosses. Across the fields of long forgotten hymns to the land of the living." — Tom Wilson
