This song was originally intended for a movie about women’s suffrage, but it ended up becoming more of a #MeToo anthem.

A gentle, Mexican song about gender-based violence:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oeU7rb-dBow

Silvana Estrada - Si Me Matan

From the singer:

Quote:

Escribí esta canción tratando de calmar la herida dolorosa y enorme que nos deja cada día la violencia de género en nuestro país y en el mundo. Es para mí un honor haber contado con todas las mujeres maravillosas que sumaron su corazón, su sensibilidad y su energía a este video.

Vernos conmovidas en nuestra propia sororidad nos enseñó mucho a todas, nos ayudó a recordar que no estamos solas y que sobre todas las cosas, hay esperanza. Ojalá que al ver esto te pase a ti también.

I wrote this song trying to calm the painful and enormous wound that gender violence leaves us every day in our country and in the world. It is an honor for me to have had all the wonderful women who added their heart, their sensitivity and their energy to this video.

Seeing ourselves moved by our own sisterhood taught us all a lot, it helped us remember that we are not alone and that above all things, there is hope. I hope that seeing this happens to you too.

Mona Haydar - Hijabi (Wrap my Hijab)

Some of the lyrics:

What that hair look like
Bet that hair look nice
Don’t that make you sweat?
Don’t that feel too tight?
Yo what yo hair look like
Bet yo hair look nice
How long your hair is

All around the world
Love women every shading
be so liberated
All around the world
Love women every shading
power run deep
So even if you hate it
I still wrap my hijab
Wrap my hijab
Wrap my hijab
Wrap, wrap my hijab

Teleportin through trauma
Teleportin through trauma
Teleportin through trauma
I been stackin my karma
Nefertiti, no drama
Make a feminist planet
Women haters get banished
Covered up or not don’t ever take us for granted

A cool chant I found for the Ancient Mesopotamian Goddess Inanna/Ishtar. The Queen of Heaven & Earth herself.

Believe me if you knew about her mythology you would understand why I and many others think of her as a symbol of proto-feminism. :heart:

^ Nice song!

Some lyrics that I especially appreciate:

“Sugar and spice and a switchblade ready” Yes! Maybe I should make that my new signature. :ninja:

“The government owns your womb.
Worker and soldiers are needed
To sustain what we consume.”

Also, yes! I’m still shocked by that situation.

Blondshell - Salad

And she took him to the courthouse
And somehow he got off
Then I saw him laughing with his lawyer
In the parking lot…
