The world and the people ‘leading’ it seems to be getting a bit more absurd everyday.
Yes we can - will.i.am
will.i.am’s Yes We Can was created for Barack Obama’s 2008 presidential campaign, capturing his message of hope, unity, and change. Though rooted in American politics, its message reaches far beyond the US.
Today, “Yes We Can” can be applied to the challenges facing the world—from climate change and inequality to war, division, and social injustice. The song reminds us that change begins with believing it is possible, but depends on people working together to make it happen.
An American campaign anthem becomes a universal message: we are not powerless, and together we can shape a better future.
