Lots of good ideas so far, Rick. Just wanted to add that altho I've been a political hothead ever since I was a kid, I've NEVER liked "protest" songs, polemics, etc., set to music. There are a few, like "What have they done to the rain" and Patriot's Game that have real melodic value, but for the rest, when I went to rallys, etc, I'd rather hear a rousing speech, and then GOOD music. I agree with those that say, if you feel out of touch, get IN touch by letting them tell you about how they perceive music and its relationship to protest and change.
