What are some good anti-war songs about World War Two and its destructiveness?
There weren’t a lot of major war demonstrations back then. As far as I know, Americans were, for the most part, wholly behind the war effort. Also, it was kind of necessary for the US to become involved in WWII, (that’s what world wars are, when major developed countries go into war with each other) because we had to support Great Britain and France, and we were attacked at Pearl Harbor, and couldn’t risk complete Japanese control in the pacific. That was kind of a long answer to your question, but as I said before, major protesting as a societal phenomenon really sprung up in the sixties during the Cival Rights Movement and Vietnam War. That’s why there were protest songs coming out around then, to spread the awareness needed to focus a large amount of communal effort.
