The Revolution Will Not Be Digitized
<p>So here’s my riff on updating Gil Scott-Heron’s classic <a href="https://youtu.be/QnJFhuOWgXg?si=g03uz53lFkDFeJV7" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">The Revolution Will not be Televised,</a> which I discovered after a quick search that it’s not the first time it’s been tried but I thought I’d do my own thing. I played the writing pretty loose, not sticking directly to the structure it’s based upon, but I thought maybe I could add a little to the conversation.</p>
