The theme for this weekend’s music thread is songs about and for America, songs about its people, its places, its problems and its promise.
So this weekend's music theme is inspired by the recent Democratic debates, songs about personal stories, identity, issues, agreements and disagreements.
The 2nd Democratic Debate begins tonight at 9:00pm EDT/6:00pm PDT and PlanetPOV is hosting a simultaneous live chat so you can share your thoughts and discuss the debate in real time with fellow members.
PlanetPOV will be hosting a live chat tonight and tomorrow night, during each Democratic debate and you're invited to join us! The debates begin (along with our live chat here) at 9:00pm PDT/6:00pm PDT and the debates can be watched on NBC, MSNBC and Telemundo.
This weekend’s music thread is calling out the whitewashing and black redactions of truths by recognizing our true colors. Songs with colors in the titles or songs are on this weekend's musical palette
