In our recent history we have had many, many protest songs really breakthrough.
"Born in the USA", "What's Going On", "Revolution", "Fight the Power", "Redemption Song", and now ... this:
Me after listening to whatever that was:
I have never heard anything less inspiring in my life.
An old woke white lady leading the poor and beleaguered ... government union workers ... in a spiritual song like they're in the Underground Railroad?
If you weren't able to endure the pain of listening, I took time to transcribe the lyrics (pray for my eardrums). 👇
OH!
Which side are you on?
Which side are you on?
(Tell me!) Which side are you on?
Which side are you on?
We'll fight against DOGE!
We'll fight Elon Musk
The Elon scab within our walls we'll fight from dawn to dusk!
...
Trump's coming for our unions,
he wants us all to fail,
he wants us all to bow to him, but we want him in jail!
...
They say in capital city,
there are no neutrals found,
You're either with the union, or a scabby Musk bloodhound!
...
Don't take that government buyout!
Don't listen to Trump's lies!
Us workers haven't got a chance unless we organize!
A modern day Mother Jones, right here!
CNN's conservative commentator, Scott Jennings, had thoughts:
But wait ... did these ladies commit the atrocity of cultural appropriation??
Uh oh!
