Joe Carr was born to a white middle class Catholic family in Kansas City, Missouri in 1981. He spent his childhood doing professional and community theatre, & struggled socially to fit in. At Center High School (60% non-white), he became an environmental and human rights activist. He graduated in 2000 & attended the Evergreen State College in Olympia, Washington. There, he studied performing arts & social sciences, & organized with the Evergreen Animal Rights Network, Evergreen Students Against Sweatshops, Evergreen Political Information Center, Earth First!, Food Not Bombs!, & co-founded Carnival! Evergreen's Political Arts Collective.

He spent January to April of 2003 coordinating for the International Solidarity Movement in Rafah, Palestine, & witnessed Israeli soldiers murder US peace activist Rachel Corrie, & British activist Tom Hurndall. He returned to the states and did a school exchange program with Grinnell College in Iowa & studied social movement theory & history. He graduated with a BA from Evergreen in 2004.

He then became a full-time activist with the Christian Peacemaker Teams and spent three months in At-Tuwani, a Palestinian village struggling to survive Israeli violence and settlement expansion. In January 2005, he released his first album "Plant the Olive Branch", and did a two-month speaking tour of the Mid-West. Israel denied him entry that April, so he spent a month in Iraq organizing with anti-occupation activists in Baghdad, Karballa, and Fallujah. He resigned from CPT in September, 2005 but continued organizing nonviolent resistance to the Israeli occupation in Palestine with the International Solidarity Movement until November, 2005.

He then returned to the US and released his second album, "Resistance to Empire" and went a three-month speaking/organizing tour of the Mid-West. In April, 2006 he settled in Lawrence, KS to do community organizing & continue working nationally for justice in the Middle East. He now works with Kansas Mutual Aid, a radical collective that focuses on resisting and creating alternatives to capitalism and imperialism. They run a radical library and organizing center called Solidarity! in downtown Lawrence. They have a community garden that provides free organic food to low income families. They do prisoner support with the Allied Resistance Network of revolutionary prisoners. They do counter-recruitment work in area high schools and at the local military recruitment centers. Recently they've been focusing on coordinating relief efforts and advocacy for the tornado-ravaged town of Greensburg, KS. Joe also helps organize a men's anti-patriarchy group, lives in a housing cooperative called the Sunflower House, and drives a mercedes converted to run on used vegetable oilSunflower House. He's teamed up with DJ Spence and is doing local hip-hop benefit shows and working on a third album.
