Growing up, I was never really sure what Even Flow was about. Something about butterflies, maybe? But over the years, as I've listened more closely and parsed more of the words, I've come to appreciate it much more as a powerful message about empathy and the struggles of homelessness. And for decades, Pearl Jam has been putting their money where their mouths are on that issue, raising millions of dollars to support programs aiming to end homelessness once and for all, so in honor of that mission, I want to talk about the song that started it all.
