I believe:
Black Lives Matter
LGBTQ+ Rights Are Human Rights
We Should All Be Feminists
There Can Be No Peace Without Justice
❤️Love Thy Neighbor❤️
Action Speaks Louder Than Words
Build Bridges
Being Neutral Sides With Oppressors
Apathy is Privilege
COWARDS CAN'T BLOCK WARRIORS

Today is a good time to revisit my protest playlist. What are your favorite protest songs? In particular I’d be interested in checking out newer bands/songs.
