2000 and Beyond
|
The new Millennium began with terrorism on a grand scale and 9/11 has been used as a rally cry for the "war on terrorism" ever since. Torture is now accepted as "enhanced interrogation" The USA spends more on military spending than the next 8 countries combined. Robotics is becoming the tool of choice for war, another way of sanitizing the despicable. The gap between the rich and the poor has grown to levels greater than ever before in our modern history. Basic human rights are in jeopardy. Worldwide the lines between law enforcement and military are being blurred, especially in the U.S. The environment moves towards dangerous conditions, disproportionately affecting the poor. The world is prime for change, but which way will it go? Musicians and songwriters have no lack of topics to draw from. *We do not endorse any of the advertised products from the linked YouTube Videos They are presented purely for educational purposes and historical perspective. |
