“Where are all the protest songs?” (Part II)

Was popular music all that political in the 1960s?

The question “where are all the protest songs?” often has its basis in a comparison with the 1960s, as I discussed in Part I of this series. The decade is widely remembered for its major social movements, including civil rights, peace, and women’s liberation. It was a tumultuous and exciting era for progressive politics, and this should be remembered and celebrated.
