“The purpose of the song [Nina Cried Power] is really to talk about how the civil liberties and civil rights that we do enjoy, the kind of common respect for the dignity of people that we take for granted now – is not something that was ever given. It’s not something that was ever given freely. It was something that was sweated for, and wept, and bled for by people who we thankfully still have around today. We can still look to that legacy, and it is something that will go again and something that we can regress from, or we can progress with. These are tenuous times, but we do live in a global community.”
