Our Liberation

The Peace Poets

“Our Liberation” is a powerful anthem born in the heart of the Occupy Wall Street movement, rooted in the ancient truth that our destinies are bound together. Written by The Peace Poets in the streets of New York City, the song proclaims, “my liberation is your liberation, and your liberation is my liberation”—a mantra that affirms our shared humanity and defies the forces that try to divide us. Sung in protests, vigils, Pride marches, and quiet moments of reflection, this song is a soulful call to collective freedom, resistance, and love.
