I only know a few of them, but like the best of songs that track a movement, they are easy to learn and have very singable choruses which a person can  join in with in a flash.  What do you say, Marion?  I bet you know lots of these.  It's a marvelous way of teaching the history of the movement, and it'd be a shame if these songs disappeared.  I'd be glad to lend my banjo playing to the event. all we need is a strong singer who knows the songs.
