He sang songs, so They Who Would Be Our Masters feared him .... 'left', 'right', i am unclear as to the meaning of these things - when you are left with the right to nothing on the theft of lands from your people, neither would seem to apply to your case ... only 'up' and 'down', as in still standing up, or down in the grave

He was a friend of Phil Ochs, who sang this song in english as 'Little Boxes' -

Las casitas del Barrio Alto
con rejas y antejardin,
una preciosa entrada de autos
esperando un Peugeot.

Hay rosadas, verdecitas,
blanquitas y celestitas,
las casitas del Barrio Alto
todas hechas con resipol.

Y las gentes de las casitas
se sonríen y se visitan.
Van juntitos al supermarket
y todos tienen un televisor.

Hay dentistas, comerciantes,
latifundistas y traficantes,
abogados y rentistas.

Y todos visten policrón,
juegan bridge, toman martini-dry.
Y los niños son rubiecitos
y con otros rubiecitos
van juntitos al colegio high.

Y el hijito de su papi
luego va a la universidad
comenzando su problemática
y la intringulis social.

Fuman pitillos en Austin mini,
juegan con bombas y con políticos,
asesina generales,
y es un gangster de la sedición.

Y las gentes de las casitas
se sonríen y se visitan.
Van juntitos al supermarket
y todos tienen un televisor.

Hay rosadas, verdecitas,
blanquitas y celestitas,
las casitas del Barrio Alto,
todas hechas con resipol.

... but it is Dieppe Day today - vac-acc.gc.ca ... at this hour they would have been all off the beach ... one way or the other, either 'up' or 'down'
