I got to this page via a random click (via the Steve Jobs 'Think Different' page, if you must know). It seems to me that the idea that the most recent picture is the best one to use is a mistake if the person concerned is quite old, and one of the pictures of a younger Joan Baez should be used for the description box instead. --Brian Josephson (talk) 09:22, 17 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Why is there no mention of her extensive work with Caesar Chavez? 24.46.240.48 (talk) 14:01, 30 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I was surprised to see that this long article made no mention of Joan Baez' performance at the funeral march in honor of ORLANDO LETELIER in Washington D.C. in the fall of 1976. I attended this march along with several hundred others, and I remember that Joan Baez performed at Sheridan Circle, the site of the car-bombing that killed Letelier and his American associate, Ronni Moffitt on September 21 of that year. I don't know if this event can be documented by using contemporary sources like the Washington Post or the Washington Star (still functioning then), but I was there and I saw and heard her. 169.156.21.164 (talk) 20:13, 14 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
