#Minnesota #MattMoberg #interfaith #protestsong #folk #songwriter I wept to read the Timberwolves' Chaplain, Matt Moberg's, statement today. Then I rewrote it into song-shape, to be SUNG (I hope to have tune in a day or 2). If of use to my friends in the US or beyond, with all love please use it 1/5

Today, I was reminded of the song "Where is the love?" by the Black Eyed Peas, from the year 2003.

And with all the backlash to progressive political developments since then, by right wing extremism, fascism and Christian Nationalism etc., this song is - sadly - very up to date. In the image, there is a quote from its lyrics.

Music video on YouTube:

[Verse 3: apl.de.ap, apl.de.ap & will.i.am]
I feel the weight of the world on my shoulder
As I'm gettin' older, y'all people gets colder
Most of us only care about money-makin'
Selfishness got us followin' the wrong direction
Wrong information always shown by the media
Negative images is the main criteria
Infecting the young minds faster than bacteria
Kids wanna act like what they see in the cinema
Yo, whatever happened to the values of humanity? (Yeah)
Whatever happened to the fairness and equality? (Yeah)
Instead of spreading love, we spreading animosity (Yeah)
Lack of understanding leading us away from unity

I'm not sure this song succeeds in getting its message across due to some confusing ambiguity. It's a good attempt at mild protest. Anyone up to writing a really strong, catchy protest song for our
challenging times? #AmyGrant #The6thofJanuary #YasgursFarm #Music #ProtestSong #ProtestMusic
