She Makes War's video: She Makes War - I Want My Country Back

FREE DOWNLOAD at http://www.shemakeswar.bandcamp.com A roar of defiance and a heartfelt plea to my fellow British citizens to unite against the deafening rhetoric of 'the other' peddled in the mainstream press. The song's title and chorus twist the phrases we’ve heard so much in recent times away from the right wing, send-them-all-home mentality towards encouraging people to have compassion for those from other backgrounds, and to consider sharing the great privileges we enjoy just by accidentally being born in this country. I want to live in a world that revels in diversity and is united by empathy. If you feel the same, I urge you to share the song.
