Its melody may be related to two European songs from the 1700s, while enslaved Black people also contributed to the song\u2019s evolution. It first emerged as a protest song during a labor strike in 1945-1946. Folk singer Pete Seeger eventually heard the song. His version is one of the best known. Soon, \u201cWe Shall Overcome\u201d embedded itself into the soul of the Civil Rights Movement. It still makes frequent appearances at social movement protests around the world.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>#2. \u201cA Change is Gonna Come\u201d (1964)<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Sam Cooke<\/p>\n<p>American singer Sam Cooke (1931-1964) was one of his era\u2019s most famous performers, but during his 8-year career, he faced racism. After a whites-only hotel refused to serve him, Sam Cooke wrote \u201cA Change is Gonna Come\u201d to express his hopes for a better future. He describes the challenges he\u2019s faced and how long he\u2019s been waiting, but in the song\u2019s refrain, he sings: \u201cI know, I know a change is gonna come.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2><strong>#3. \u201cThe Times They Are A-Changin\u201d (1964)<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Bob Dylan<\/p>\n<p>Written as an anthem for the Civil Rights Movement and Vietnam war protests, \u201cThe Times They Are A-Changin\u201d is one of Bob Dylan\u2019s most iconic songs. It calls on everyone &#8211; from writers and critics, to senators to mothers and fathers &#8211; to pay attention and not get in the way of progress. \u201cThe order is rapidly fadin\u2019\/And the first one now\/Will later be last,\u201d Dylan sings. \u201cFor the times they are a-changin.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<h2><strong>#4. \u201cThe Revolution Will Not Be Televised (1970)<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Gil Scott-Heron<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Revolution Will Not Be Televised\u201d is a spoken word poem by American poet and musician Gil Scott-Heron. Recorded for a 1970 album, it\u2019s one of the most famous and powerful examples of protest art. In the poem, Scott-Heron lists examples of what the revolution will <em>not <\/em>be. It will not be brought by Xerox or make you look thinner. It won\u2019t have a theme song written by Francis Scott Key, Tom Jones or Johnny Cash. The song calls on people, especially young people, to get away from TV because \u201cyou will not be able to stay home, brother, you will not be able to plug in, turn on and cop out.\u201d In a time dominated by media and entertainment, the song has only become more relevant.<\/p>\n<p><em>Many songs about human rights and equality became popular protest songs. Here\u2019s our list of <\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.humanrightscareers.com\/issues\/play-listen-repeat-10-historic-resistance-songs-that-changed-the-world\/\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>10 historic resistance songs<\/em><\/a><em>. <\/em><\/p>\n<h2><strong>#5. \u201cBella Ciao\u201d (19th century)<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Unknown<\/p>\n<p>Created by farm workers over a hundred years ago, the Italian folk song \u201cBella Ciao,\u201d which means \u201cGoodbye, Beautiful,\u201d is believed to have been sung by Italians fighting Nazis. Now, it\u2019s sung by freedom fighters and anti-fascists around the world. According to America Domani, it\u2019s made appearances in <a href=\"https:\/\/americadomani.com\/bella-ciao-how-an-italian-folk-song-became-an-anthem-of-revolution%EF%BF%BC\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ukraine and Iran<\/a>. Translated, the song tells the story of a young man leaving his girlfriend to join a resistance. He asks her to bury him under the shade of a beautiful flower so that people who pass will know he died for freedom. People around the world record their own versions, but no matter the language, \u201cBella Ciao\u201d has come to symbolize freedom from tyranny.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>#6. \u201cWe Got To Have Peace\u201d (1971) <\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Curtis Mayfield<\/p>\n<p>Curtis Mayfield (1942-1999) was an American singer-songwriter known as the \u201cGentle Genius.\u201d He performed with The Impressions, a group famous during the Civil Rights Movement, and then went solo. \u201cWe Got To Have Peace\u201d appears on his 1971 album <em>Super Fly. <\/em>The lyrics present a simple message: \u201cWe go to have peace\/To keep the world alive\/And war to cease.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2><strong>#7. \u201cWhen Will We Be Paid\u201d (1970) <\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The Staple Singers<\/p>\n<p>The Staple Singers were an American gospel and R&amp;B group. One of the members, Mavis Staples, would go on to have a successful solo career. In 1970, the group released \u201cWhen Will We Be Paid,\u201d a song describing the discrimination and hardships inflicted on Black people. \u201cWe have worked this country from shore to shore,\u201d they sing. They have fought wars in every land and given everything they had, so \u201cWhen will we be paid for the work we\u2019ve done?\u201d<\/p>\n<h2><strong>#8. \u201cPeople Have the Power\u201d (1988) <\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Patti Smith<\/p>\n<p>Patti Smith is an American singer, songwriter, poet and artist famous in the New York City punk rock movement. \u201cPeople Have The Power,\u201d released in 1988, is a powerful, optimistic song declaring that people have the power to change the world. It\u2019s a much-needed sentiment during times of hardships and hopelessness when everything feels like it\u2019s breaking. \u201cMy senses newly opened,\u201d Smith sings, \u201cI awakened to the cry\/That the people have the power\/To redeem the work of fools.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2><strong>#9. \u201cJustice\u201d (1989) <\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Ziggy Marley<\/p>\n<p>Ziggy Marley, the son of Bob Marley, is a Jamaican reggae musician whose music includes social and political themes. The song \u201cJustice,\u201d which was released in 1989, explores waiting for justice and liberty, witnessing and experiencing oppression, and determination. \u201cJustice, they are on my back\/Justice, the more the tears\/The more, the more we want, justice, justice.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2><strong>#10. \u201cPeople Help the People\u201d (2007) <\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Cherry Ghost\/Birdy<\/p>\n<p>The band Cherry Ghost released \u201cPeople Help the People\u201d on their first album. The song was a hit in 2007, and then again when singer Birdy released a cover in 2011. The lyrics share a simple message of pain, feeling lost, and helping the people around you. \u201cPeople help the people, and if you\u2019re homesick, give me your hand and I\u2019ll hold it\/People help the people, and nothing will drag you down.\u201d In a world where institutions frequently let us all down, we can ease each other\u2019s burdens by reaching out.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>#11. \u201cThrough the Eyes of a Child\u201d (2014) <\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>AURORA<\/p>\n<p>Norwegian singer, songwriter and producer AURORA has been involved in several social justice causes such as anti-racism and climate action. The song \u201cThrough the Eyes of a Child,\u201d released in 2014, describes a longing to see the world with innocence. When human rights violations and inequalities are rampant, it\u2019s common to feel a desire for innocence and hope. While the world needs us to fight, we also need time to rest and feel optimistic.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>#12. \u201cFight Like A Girl\u201d (2020) <\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Raye Zaragoza<\/p>\n<p>Raye Zaragoza is an American singer-songwriter. She has a mixed racial heritage (Japanese, Mexican and O\u2019Odham), and many of her songs explore themes about identity, social justice and being a woman of color. \u201cFight Like A Girl,\u201d which appears on her sophomore album, is an intersectional anthem for all women. The chorus cries, \u201cTake me to the water, take me to the snow\/Where all the souls our mothers had to go\/Take me to sweet sights, teach me your battle cries\/Take me to the front lines of the war, to fight like a girl.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2><strong>#13. \u201cRise Up\u201d (2015) <\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Andra Day<\/p>\n<p>Andra Day is an American R&amp;B singer and award-winning actor. In 2015, she released her debut album, on which appeared the song \u201cRise Up.\u201d An inspiring and powerful song, the lyrics talk about moving mountains, rising like the day, and doing it a thousand times, again and again, even though \u201cyou feel like dying.\u201d While Day wrote the song in response to personal struggles and a friend\u2019s cancer diagnosis, it quickly became a theme for the <a href=\"https:\/\/time.com\/collection\/american-voices-2017\/5029505\/american-voices-andra-day\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Black Lives Matter movement<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>#14. \u201cWhite Man\u2019s World\u201d (2017) <\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit<\/p>\n<p>With his band the 400 Unit, American singer-songwriter and actor Jason Isbell is known for writing deep, politically resonant music. In 2017, the band released \u201cWhite Man\u2019s World,\u201d which appeared on <em>The<\/em> <em>Nashville Sound Album. <\/em>It focuses on Isbell\u2019s reckoning with his white male privilege. The song\u2019s most powerful lyrics come from the chorus: \u201cThere\u2019s no such thing as someone else\u2019s war\/Your creature comforts aren\u2019t the only things worth fighting for.\u201d It calls to mind the activist Fannie Lou Hammer\u2019s famous quote, \u201cNobody\u2019s free until everybody\u2019s free.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2><strong>#15. \u201cGet Together\u201d (1967)<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Dino Valenti\/The Youngbloods<\/p>\n<p>The Youngbloods were an American rock band active in the 1960s. This era was a time of immense change and struggle in the form of the Civil Rights Movement, the Vietnam War, the hippie movement and more. The song \u201cGet Together,\u201d originally performed by Dino Valenti, encourages people to \u201cget together\u201d and \u201ctry to love one another right now.\u201d Jesse Colin Young, one of the members of The Youngbloods, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.npr.org\/2019\/04\/10\/711545679\/get-together-youngbloods-summer-of-love-american-anthem\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">heard the song<\/a> and was struck by the opening lines, \u201cLove is but a song we sing, fear\u2019s the way we die.\u201d The song has since come to symbolize unity and a persistent longing for peace.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":19,"featured_media":26819,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[8805],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-26818","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-issues","generate-columns","tablet-grid-50","mobile-grid-100","grid-parent","grid-50"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!--
