Episode: ACFM Microdose: Plugged-in Protest w/ Jeremy Gilbert
Description: Music has the uncanny power to stir up big feelings, which makes it an obvious vehicle for political statements of hope, anger, despair, or how to cast your vote. In this Microdose episode to accompany ACFMβs recent Trip on Protest, Jem takes us through 60 years of plugged-in protest music β no strumming folkies or broadside ballads this time.
From hip-hop campaign boosters to new wave takes on British imperialism, from anti-landlord lyrics to a requiem for the post-war dream, itβs a narrated playlist revealing the manifold methods of musical persuasion.
