Request for videos - Protest songs

[ZERTErYNOthe]

Hello DU Friends, I hope this is the right forum. If not please let me know, I've run afoul of rules before.

I would like to hear protest songs (loosely speaking) that are meaningful to you. I am a child of the 70s, and grew up with stuff like "where have all the flowers gone". we sang it in grade school, along with all of the usual stuff from that time. And later in my life, Rage Against the Machine. There was so much in between, including Metallica's One.

Metallica's One (inspired by the movie Johnny Got his Gun)

Hopefully some folks will be inspired to share videos of songs that were meaningful to them.

1. "Que volen aquesta gent?" Maria de Mar Bonet 1968

(What do these people want, that pound my door in the morning?)

The poem and the song were written as a denunciation of Franco's repression and specifically to publicize the death of Rafael Guijarro, who was said to have been thrown out of a window by the police. The song was censored, could not be sung in recitals or broadcast on the radio. In these times, with a setback in the liberties and social rights it returns to the present time "

5. That is very dark, but thanks for the concept of a song from 1989 being a "protest," song when

we have been sold and told, "protest songs are products of 60/70s.

6. Joan Baez - Te Recuerdo Amanda (live in France, 1973)

I remember you, Amanda
The wet street
running to the factory where Manuel worked

The wide smile, the rain in your hair,
nothing mattered
you were going to meet with him,
with him, with him, with him

They were five minutes
life is eternal
in five minutes

The whistle blew
to return to work
and you walking you lit up everything
those five minutes
made you blossom

I remember you, Amanda
The wet street
running to the factory where Manuel worked

The wide smile, the rain in your hair,
nothing mattered
you were going to meet with him,
with him, with him, with him

And he took to the mountains to fight
He had never hurt a fly
and in five minutes
it was all wiped out

The whistle blew
to return to work
many didn't go back
neither did Manuel

I remember you, Amanda
The wet street
running to the factory where Manuel worked
