Song for one of my classes...

I'm in this class called Social Difference and I need to find a song that illustrates racism and prejudice in today's society and write a paper about it... I was thinking of using "Leaving the Past" by Immortal Technique, but it only addresses that in a few of the lines, so any other suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

It's pretty cliche, but "Changes" by Tupac is a great song that deals with racism and prejudice.

"Fed Up With the Bullshit" by Big L or Nas "Rule" or just about any Public Enemy song. Mos Def's "Mr. Nigga" would work well too.

Hymn To Freedom-Oscar Peterson,
There's no words, it's all piano but it's about over coming bigotry and injustice.

If you listen to it you'll understand. Since when did you have to have words in a song to convey a message?

Fuck The Police by NWA would be so sick. It's got alot of irrelavent stuff in it, but there's a ton on police brutality towards blacks.
