WOODY Guthrie, the venerated American singer-songwriter who wrote and sang This Land is Your Land and other haunting songs about justice, freedom and human dignity, stayed for two years at a Brooklyn apartment complex owned and operated by real estate developer Fred Trump in the early 1950s. In early 2016, just months before Fred s son Donald won that year s presidential elections, Will Kaufman, a Guthrie scholar and professor of American literature at the University of Lancashire, found a few unrecorded songs written by Guthrie in 1954 while doing research at the Guthrie Archives in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
