How Musicians are Making Politics Accessible

As long as music has existed, those who make music take to their songs to express their feelings on the political climate. But since the early 2000s, the way the media, especially conservative media, handles those who "step out of line" and talk politics when it's "not their job to" is not with kindness. With the current tumultuous political climate, musicians working to make politics more accessible to their fans, especially of younger generations, is more important now than ever. We're looking into the artists who have gone above and beyond to make politics easily digestible to their hordes of fans while the US education system continues to focus on bare minimum history lessons.
