Published on:
9th February, 2026
A modern and compelling take on protest songs that doesn't lean on outrage so much as "there but for the grace of God", and a cover by an artist who redefined what this kind of song can do in the world. Beautiful Strangers, originally by Kevin Morby, covered by Mavis Staples.
Outro music is I Ain't Got No Home In This World Anymore by Woody Guthrie.
