Baez-Dylan songs

[edit]

A couple important songs were missed in this paragraph. Dylan co-wrote “Oh Sister” with Jacque Levy as a direct answer to “Diamonds and Rust “. He announced that it was for a friend in the audience at the premiere, and Joan was in attendance. She wrote her answer into the song “Oh, Brother!” Both songs should be added to the paragraph after discussion of “Diamonds and Rust”.. 2600:1702:3510:2660:A109:A74C:B8CD:FBEC (talk) 03:24, 15 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Israel-Palestine?

[edit]

Joan has been vocal about conflict in the West Bank since at least the 1980s (as the article already mentions), but her numerous recent declarations are nowhere to be found – neither those against Hamas nor against Israel's actions. Should another section be added for this when speaking about her social activism? I haven't done it myself because I am not knowledgeable enough when it comes to Wikipedia's editing/sourcing/etc rules.
