It is important to acknowledge who is standing up and who is just trying to get by. Every day Americans are standing up while the powerful are mostly standing by.
Why aren't law firms standing up and sending lawyers to Minneapolis. Why aren't the corporations speaking out? Why isn't the media?

I began Hounds for many reasons. One was to write protest music at a time it's astonishing how few major artists are releasing anything that acknowledges what's happening in America. I hope you’ll spread the word about Hounds, as protest music is thin on the ground right now—and that is a *tragedy*.
