Protest music helps me survive tough times
Thursday, January 23rd, 2025 12:29 pmFolk singer Jesse Welles hellswelles wrote a great song about why companies like United Healthcare are horrible:
You paid for the paper,
you paid for the phone,
you paid for everything you need
to deny what you’re owed.

I grew up in the 60s, when protest music was played on commercial radio. In the 70s, I played rhythm guitar and sang alto in several protest bands. We played at rallies and on picket lines, as well as small clubs in my town. Sharing a song with a crowd feeds my soul.
Any protest music that’s speaking to you right now?
