The Revolution Will Not Be Televised, a playlist for these times
Gil Scott-Heron, American jazz poet and musician known for his spoken-style performances, immortalized the words, “The Revolution Will Not Be Televised” in his 1970s hit song. What does the sentiment mean? A revolutionary himself, Gil Scott-Heron claims that change will not occur through messages delivered to your TV screen, but only by a change of heart followed up with meaningful action. This playlist is the story of American life and politics in this moment as I see it.
