The bolded songs are saying the same thing to different generations.

2pac

Marvin Gaye

These songs mean a lot to me because they speak to how African Americans are treated in the United States. Others speak to how women’s bodies are analyzed and the unfair standards we have to face. It was hard to pick songs because songs that are critical to me may not be to others.
