QUESTION Political Songs!

Fave political song? Just found a great one! 🙂
Anti-flag "Racists"

No, you weren't alive in the time of slavery But that's no excuse to ignore its legacy Not afraid of refugees But don't want a mosque built on your street Offended by the claim of bigotry More than the racism in your face "Music Fans"

And here's another 🙂
There's nothing American about us now
Have we forgotten what we're all about
Cause I still believe in our democracy
And equal rights for every race and creed
So take it outside
Shout it loud as you can
We won't let sexism or bigotry stand

So many it is difficult to pick just one but here is South Africa by Roy Harper. Written at the time of aparthite its odd because it doubles up as a love song.

Once I was anothers lover
Now I am my own
Trying to call myself a brother
Living here alone
Maybe if you came to see me
Wishing I wasn't so blind
Sitting here thinking to be free
Maybe we'd all change our mind

She is kind and beautiful
I am young and strong
We have never met each other
But it can't be long
Oft' I have slept by her window
Often I whisper her name
And wonder that words in the wind blow
Happy that hers are the same (english)

Funny how the political machine never changes. Rage dropped this track in 1992, but the lyrics are still relevant.

Green Day or the original Lennon version, Working Class Hero. I also noticed no one has said Imagine by Lennon yet.

(the song was like it wasn't written.)

Emmitt Till's mother had Emmitt laid out in an open casket.

His face raw, torn flesh, looked like raw hamburger, no longer a boy's face.

Emmitt's mother wanted the world to see her son't bloody face in all its glory.

The men who killed Emmitt went free.

A song in Spanish, about the Puertorrican Pursuit of Independence off USA. "Mr. con Macana" by Roy Brown. Hands down... nothing better! And the video show example of the struggle never in ameriKKKan TV of what is going on not only in Puerto Rico but all over Latin America. My Soundtrack as a Rebelious High School Senior in San Juan circa 1972.
