Resistance Culture (Songs, Cartoons, Movies, Books and Other Cultural Items Related to Resistance and Protest)

More Music, Movies, Books, Art, Poetry, Cartoons, Comedy, and Other Cultural Expressions That Align With Our Movement Will Inspire Us to Work for Change

While we at Rights Hawks know that these cultural aspects of our society will not in themselves bring about the changes we demand, we also understand how important they are to building, inspiring, and maintaining movements.

Leon Uris’ 1958 book Exodus and the 1960 movie based on it are believed to have taken control of the narrative about the Israeli Zionist takeover of Palestine and greatly increased support for the Zionist’s theft of the land. To counter such negative expressions, we need to support strong and influential cultural works on behalf of justice.

Following are some works that might interest you.

Kris Kristofferson’s Third World Warrior Album

Almost every song from the album. The songs mostly deal with the wars in South America and the struggle for freedom in South Africa. Just change the names to Palestine and other countries at war today, and the album is still valid.

“Don’t Let the Bastards Get You Down“

“Aguila Del Norte” – “The Eagle of the North”

“The Eagle and the Bear“

“Third World Warrior”

“Deportee”

“Wasteland of the Free”
