Join us at Cafe Nine for Another Protest Song: Karaoke with a Message By Angel Nevarez & Valerie Tevere at Cafe 9 on March 7 from 8-10pm.

Another Protest Song: Karaoke with a Message looks to the karaoke songbook as potential for political enunciation through song. In the era of American Idol and innumerable karaoke bars, everyone is a singer, and the choice of a song speaks a lot about the performer, especially if that song includes political content. In the situation of protest karaoke, while the song choice might communicate history in the present, it also speaks of a history attached (or even dis-attached but newly considered) to a political situation rather than one consumed primarily as a popular cultural product.
