Some days, it feels like my anger at injustice, and my passion for political change, are constantly met by obstacles or indifference. I start to question myself: Can I ever really help with any cause I believe in? Why does it seem like no one is listening? This is a playlist of songs by passionate people who are dedicated to music and to politics. It’s for those days when your energy is waning, and you need to feel like you have someone strong by your side.
