Fwd: protest songs + chants

[Ashley Fehr]

Leader: What do we want?
All: A PUBLIC INQUIRY! (can be substituted with JUSTICE, ACCOUNTABILITY, etc..)
Leader: When do we want it?
All: NOW!!


Leader: [Civil Liberties] are under attack! What do we do? ([ ] can be swapped with Our right to speak out, peaceful protestors, our right to protest, etc..)
All: UNITE, FIGHT BACK!


ONE, We are the people, TWO, a little bit louder, THREE, and we want justice FOUR each other..


Show me what democracy looks like.
THIS IS WHAT DEMOCRACY LOOKS LIKE!


Hey Hey, Ho Ho,
The Police State has got to go!


Ho Ho, Hey Hey,
We want a public inquiry today!


No Justice...
NO PEACE!
More Accountable Police! [or alternatively, No Racist Police!]


PEACEFUL PROTEST IS A RIGHT!
WE WILL NOT GIVE UP THE FIGHT!

Anything calling for Public Inqury would be excellent!

Ya any ideas please pass along and I'll do the same.  I'm trying to work on something for the inquiry, all I have is "Hey Harper, McGuinty, we want a public inquiry" but it's a bit weak.

I am looking up some old protest chants today to try and see what we can work the words into.

"This is what Democracy looks like" has been popular.
We are also going with "Our future, Our rights"
but I think we need one that deals with the inquiry.

Any ideas for good chants and protest songs for the rally?
