Some great songs. Don't forget the Phil Ochs, though.

It is nice, and very well done, but it is missing Gil Scott-Heron, The Revolution Will Not Be Televised ...

This is a nice mix, and includes a couple of songs that i have been thinking about crafting a protest mix around. So, well done! I'm not usually one to suggest some song that isn't on there, but as I was checking it out I just got this feeling that the MC5 probably have something that would fit here.

This is so rowdy- you might also want to check out "Ohio" by Crosby Stills Nash + Young. This reminds me of Forrest Gump.
