The Power of the Protest Song




This summer, One.org encourages everyone to raise their voices for the elimination of extreme poverty through the power of protest songs in a new campaign called agit8.

Prompted by the G8 summit in June, agit8 worked with major recording artists including Sting, Green Day, Elvis Costello, will.i.am, Ed Sheeran, Mumford & Sons, U2, and Macklemore & Ryan Lewis to build an incredible library of protest song covers, arranged by cause.

View the library of protest songs, learn about the causes, and see the power of music to bring issues of importance to the limelight.
