The day Trump was elected I was excited for a new wave of anti-government human-rights protest music. The best we got was “This Is America”.

Edit: I appreciate the few examples you’ve offered but I was thinking of the movements of the 60s and 80s. It wasn’t just the hippie peace love anti war music or rap music, it was poetry, fiction, movies, documentaries. It was the culture around the people rising up to protest their government. Now any shmoe can tweet at the president.

Check out Poor Man’s Poison and, if you’re a rap fan, Cal Scruby has some pretty on-topic pieces (“Captain America” comes to mind as an explicit example).

But seriously, check out Poor Man’s Poison, he encapsulates almost everything that I’m feeling.
