Folk legend and Grammy winner Noel Paul Stookey joins Nancy to discuss the power of music to create social awareness and change, his journey as one-third of the beloved '60s folk music trio Peter, Paul, and Mary and their hits like "If I Had a Hammer" "Where Have All the Flowers Gone" and "Blowin' in The Wind" that quickly became empowering songs during the difficult times of that decade.
