Music of the Movement: Protest Music Has Long Been a Messenger of Resistance | NBCLX

People participating in social movements across generations have used music to share their feelings, protest the status quo and artistically call for reform. Some of this protest music you might know. Some you might not. NBC LX Storytellers Clark Fouraker and Eric Rodriguez looked back at the history of protest music to see how certain songs influenced social justice movements over the years, up until and including today's Black Lives Matter movement.

I wish you used our platform to help people to inspire us. You cannot take 1 or 200 cases of "black violence" but ignore everything else. Not to mention associating these beautiful songs, except when talked about how celebrities are depraved or "inhumane conditions". 🥺🙄
Hey did u realize it's ALL upcoming artists that are held back.
Best part is my MAN TUPAC and playing changes. Funny how you didn't articulate on that song. Stop spreading HATE AND RACISM!!!!!! We are over it!!!!
