Episode 22: Say Their Names (with David Rovics)
Ongoing History of Protest Music - A podcast by CJ Baker
Categories:
This episode features Portland-based singer-songwriter and activist David Rovics, who has already released four albums in 2020. We discuss what inspires him to be so prolific. We also discuss his most recent album, Say Their Names, the current situation in Portland, the important role music plays in protest movements, the challenges of being a DIY artist, among other topics.
I also invite listeners to leave a voice message mentioning their favorite protest album, along with a brief statement of why they connect with the album. These comments will be included in a future episode. They will also be counted as votes for the 500 Protest Albums Project.
