Sometimes, the best music is born out of social movements against injustice. Some songs even end up as rally calls or the theme song for the movement it was born of, and for future movements. Tonight we are taking a look at some of the music that born out of recent movements around the world - most of which are on-going movements that are still active today. 

NPR even did an article that you can check out titled "10 Songs That Rallied Resistance Around The World," some of which are in tonight's show.
