Johnny Cash Thought

Johnny Cash Thought is an economically centre, culturally  left ideology based upon the beliefs and music of American country musician John R. Cash.

=History= Cash was born on February 26, 1932 in Kingsland Arkansas. At age three he and his family moved to Dyess, Arkansas, a colony created by a New Deal program to provide jobs for poor families. Here from the age of five he worked in the cotton fields alongside the rest of his family, his experience during these years would give him a lifelong sympathy for the poor and working class.

Cash began singing in High-School, but his musical career began when, in 1955, he received a contract with Sun Records. Here he wrote some of his most famous songs, with "Folsom Prison Blues" making the country top 5 and "I Walk The Line" reaching number one on the country charts. In 1958, however, he left Sun for a more lucrative opportunity with Columbia Records where he would remain for nearly 30 years.

Throughout the 1950's Cash began tailoring both his beliefs and image, beginning in 1957 he used his status to bring attention to the plight of Native Americans,  The Elderly,  Prisoners, and  The Vietnam War. He also adopted the color black as his outfit of choice, at first due to it being the only matching color between him and his bandmates, but later because of its representation of the ideals he stood for.

Throughout his life Cash remained a devout Christian, and despite being raised as a Southern Baptist, often rejected any specific denomination. In the 1970's he completed a course of Bible study which culminated in a pilgrimage to Israel in 1978. Despite his devotion to the faith, Cash himself maintained that he was "the biggest sinner of them all" and that his beliefs were complicated and somewhat contradictory.

Cash passed away on September 12th, 2003 due to complications from diabetes.

=Personality= Johnny Cash Thought is devoutly Christian and greatly values reformism as well as liberal democracy and  rights. He greatly enjoys country music and plays various instruments, especially the Guitar.
