What is happening in the world today terrifies even me, and I don’t exist entirely within the world. Dictators destroy the physical and the digital.
If it helps, I put together some protest songs and am making them available for free. Share widely. Fight nationalism. Fight populism. Fight fascism. Fight dictators. Fight authoritarian regimes.

Facts Don’t Kneel lyrics
Truth decay, loyalty pledge, lies on tap,
Crowd roar, feed loop, outrage map,
Obama jealous, Nobel chaser,
ICE boss, peace eraser.
Golden tower, grievance show,
Enemies everywhere you go.
Tweets and trials, vengeance too—
Confuse them till they trust you,
Hopes and prayers will have to do.
Facts don’t kneel.
Facts don’t kneel.
Facts don’t kneel.
Facts don’t kneel.
Facts don’t kneel.
Facts don’t kneel.
Facts don’t kneel.
Facts don’t kneel.
Alt-truth, deep fake, criminals freed,
Justice bent for the chosen creed.
Santos, Kelsey, Milton, Morgan
Jenkins, Callahan, Chrisleys, Kernan.
Crypto, meme coins, bribes,
Donations, business deals, junior vibes.
Witch hunt chant, judge defamed,
Every loss gets someone blamed.
Fake electors, tiny hands,
More senile than Joe, racist young fans.
Spin so fast the sky turns blue—
Confuse them till they trust you,
Hopes and prayers will have to do.
Facts don’t kneel!
Not to kings!
Facts don’t kneel!
Not to liars!
Facts don’t kneel!
Not to money!
Facts don’t kneel!
Not to kings!
Facts don’t kneel!
Not to liars!
Facts don’t kneel!
Not to money!
Facts don’t kneel!
Not to him!
Facts don’t kneel!
Not to him!
Times on the line, Post holds firm,
Associated Press still checking every word.
Guardian brave, the Globe unbowed,
NPR whispers through the crowd.
Paper cuts and camera flares,
Truth still speaks because someone dares.
Ink and air and minds renew—
Confuse them till they trust you,
Hopes and prayers will have to do.
Facts don’t kneel.
Facts don’t kneel.
Facts don’t kneel.
Facts don’t kneel.
Facts don’t kneel.
Facts don’t kneel.
Facts don’t kneel.
Facts don’t kneel.
Dictators don’t want you to know the truth.
Facts don’t kneel.
Facts don’t kneel.
Facts don’t kneel.
Facts don’t kneel.
Facts don’t kneel.
