Although music is known to be part of the great social movements
that have rocked the world, its specific contribution to political
struggle has rarely been closely analyzed. Is it truly the
lifeblood of movements, as some have declared, or merely the
entertainment between the speeches? Drawing on interviews, case
studies, and musical and lyrical analysis, Rosenthal and Flacks
offer a brilliant analysis and a wide-ranging look at the use of
music in movements, in the U.S. and elsewhere, over the past
hundred years. From their interviews, the voices of Pete Seeger,
Ani DiFranco, Tom Morello, Holly Near, and many others enliven this
highly readable book."a complex, theoretical analysis of music and
social movements...Recommended." -CHOICE"
