Spend a Saturday with songs of revolution and protest. This is an in-person program. From Woody Guthrie to Greenday, music has often played a role in bringing about cultural change. Songs of protest are written to challenge or protest against a government or social order, and may in turn lead to a revolution. Local musician Mike Biggers says that songs of protests quite often precede social or political revolutions and provide a soundtrack for change. Join Mike for a closer look and listen to notable songs of protest. Mike Biggers is a Sisters, Oregon musician whose songs reflect everyday life through his personal experience and observations, often displaying his use of wordplay and dry sense of humor. *cr*
