"We Are The Many" Makana Occupy Movement Protest Song

"We Are The Many" Makana Occupy Movement Protest Song.
With all the recent occupy movements going on lately it wasn't too long til somebody wrote a song about it. That somebody happens to be Makana (Matthew Swalinkavich) of Hawaii. During the APEC Summit hosted by the White House, played his protest song, "We Are The Many" in front of The President and 18 other nations. The song is rumored to be the Occupy Movement theme song.

The song sends a powerful message to the heads of government. I thought this would be a good share.
