1. Neil Young - Southern Man
2. Paul Nickerson - Kul Or Blind

Neil Young’s “Southern Man,” articulates a marked disgust with the racist tendency of regional nationalism. Young put out a song that sought to openly and aggressively single out the violent legacy of Southern racism and its influence still operating strong within Southern social thought, refusing to let it fade away from the popular memory just as the most influential and high-ranking of apologists were beginning to formulate and put into action the notion of equality finally achieved in the “new America.”
