    Also, showing my age by spelling 'showing' as 'sowing'! You can't get the staff these days! :D:D

    30+ years old, but still relevant with the situation in NI and police corruption both being in the news recently:


    Just about every song by Anti Flag is a protest song


    And seeing as it is "Pride" month.

    Obscure Dylan protest song, about the death of a Black Panther. That should get a few people on here going, although on reflection...

    The war album led to my becoming a big fan of U2. this song being the best. Of a great list of tracks.
    Probably not so much a protest. as a remembrance to the same event. Beautiful. Haunting moving song.

    Don’t think I’ve heard that b4 mate. Must have passed me by. ( photos are ingrained) I drive through Orgreave nearly every working day. Certainly a different picture. From when I picketed the place. Hundreds of houses.

    Waiting on a signal,
    Coming down the line
    Load your magazin clip,
    I'll load mine

    And don't you know i feel proud
    Just to shake your hand
    Don't you know i feel proud
    Just to make a stand

    Waiting on the roof tops,
    Looking for a sign
    Pull your hand-grenade pin,
    And i'll pull mine

    And don't you know i feel proud
    Just to shake your hand
    Don't you know i feel proud
    Just to make a stand
    when the old man dies
    On ascension day
    when we rise

    Now when we rise
    Power to the people
    When we rise
    Power to the poor
    When we rise
    Powe to the workers
    When we rise
    Power to us all
