The song “This Land Is Your Land” by Woody Guthrie is a protest song advocating for the equality of all people, regardless of class or occupation. The lyrics describe the vast beauty of the landscape and its overwhelming nature. The refrain "This land was made for you and me" serves as a reminder that all people have the right to use and inhabit this land. The verses that are not included in the recording emphasize the inequality of some people, exhibiting how those with wealth and privilege can restrict access to those without. The song ultimately serves as a reminder of our collective rights to this land and its natural resources, and emphasizes the importance of remembering our humanity and shared history.
