One of the most well-known aspects of the Second World War was that the virulently anti-communist leaders of countries like the United Kingdom made an alliance with the Soviet Union, because of the mutual interest they all thought they had in defeating Hitler. Here we are again -- but where's the united front against fascism?

Quindi anche se questi Proud Boys non sono esattamente quelli che in Ungheria organizzano il "Giorno dell'Onore" vorrei dedicare - per quel che serve - questa ed altre canzoni in questo percorso a Ilaria Salis, antifascista italiana rinchiusa nelle galere ungheresi per aver protestato contro una manifestazione neonazista.
A Ilaria Zerocalcare ha dedicato sulle pagine di Internazionale una bellissima storia a fumetti dal titolo “In Fondo al Pozzo”.

Featuring Adam Ness
One of the more socially conscious tunes on the album is “Prayer Song,” which features vocals from Adam Ness. The lyrics deftly explore subjects, such as gun violence, police brutality, gentrification, toxic masculinity, and systemic racism.
The lyrics include: “I set my cell phone on the dash, could’ve sworn it’s a gun / I ain’t seen a toddler in the back after firing seven shots.”
Those words allude to incidents, where a black person is shot because a police officer apparently mistakes a cell phone for a gun.
It is also a reference to the June 7, 2016 murder of Philando Castile. He was shot by a police officer seven times while his 4-year-old daughter was sitting in the backseat.

“Back in the USA” vaguely narrates the story of a soldier coming home from war. The song sees Green Day back with its political critiques and pointing at some hypocritical views of the country. Billie shows the irony of the wars America is involved in and also dismantles the allegiance of blind patriotism in certain aspects of American society.

Sweet Canaan
Lyrics : 1807 - Mead's General Collection
Music : 1844 - E.J.King
Music played an important part in the lives of enslaved Americans. Songs were a way of giving encouragement and hope for a free future.
During the underground railroad the word Canaan was substituted for the word "Canada" which was the destination of some slaves.
*****
The hymn was known to Frederick Douglass.
Frederick Douglass was a writer, statesman and anti-slavery activist. He also escaped slavery to freedom in the North. In one of his books, he writes about the songs sung by slaves to encourage each other to escape. Here is part of one of the songs that inspired him: “O Canaan, sweet Canaan, I am bound for the land of Canaan.” Douglass said about the song: “We meant to reach the north - and the north was our Canaan.”

Scritta da Carl Barât & Pete Doherty.
Album prodotto da Mick Jones (The Clash, Big Audio Dynamite)
Il 1 Maggio del 2000 (ed anche l'anno successivo) la capitale inglese venne invasa da una partecipatissima protesta popolare anticapitalista che sfociò in una giornata di rivolte e di feroce repressione poliziesca.
Protagonisti delle proteste sono i WOMBLES (White Overalls Movement Building Libertarian Effective Struggles) gruppo anarchico e anticapitalista che si distingueva per il loro abbigliamento bianco, simile alle Tute Bianche italiane.
Nonostante gli scontri violenti, alcuni manifestanti (i “ragazzi eleganti” della rivolta) mantennero sempre un aspetto impeccabile.
Pete Doherty ha raccontato di essere passato in quell'occasione accanto a una guardia in assetto antisommossa con tanto di scudo di plastica. Pete usò lo scudo come specchio per... (Continues)
