Talib Kweli is the latest musician to offer his support to the Occupy Wall Street movement. He showed up at New York’s Liberty Plaza Thursday night for an a cappella, spoken-word style performance. Previously, Jeff Mangum of Neutral Milk Hotel and Michael Franti entertained the crowd into the night.
Kweli ended his set by leading the crowd in a call-and-response rise to action:
“I’m at a loss for words
But even me being at a loss for words is amplified
They want to know what the end game is?
This is the end game
You doing your job
Everybody here with a camera
Everybody here with a computer
Everybody here with a smartphone
Everyone here with a voice
Do your job
And spread the word
For the people who are sleeping here
You inspire us
If you are inspired by them
Make it grow
This is the end game
It’s about growth now
We have to grow
And that’s the point
I love y’all.”
