    It Is Right to Rebel is an exciting and thought provoking new record from Mat Callahan & Yvonne Moore and friends. The double LP consisting of 15 tracks are mostly rooted in the folk music tradition with the unifying elements of rhythm, group singing and acoustic music. Lyrically it deals with topics such as the Zapatista uprising in Chiapas, political prisoners and environmental issues.

    The central theme of the record is awareness. It Is Right to Rebel is a battle cry, a wake up call, an invitation to join the struggles of our time, a celebration of rebellion and social movements and a musical thumbs up to all the people that realize that big changes have to be made.

    The double album comes in a gatefold sleeve with cover art made by graphic designer and author of The Encyclopedia of Political Record Labels, Josh McPhee, from the Just Seeds collective.

    It Is Right to Rebel is a true product of internationalism. It is recorded in Switzerland by an American and a gang of Swiss musicians, the cover art is made by an American activist from Brooklyn and the record is released by a Norwegian leftist record label.

    The release is limited to 500 physical copies world wide.

about

Following the Financial Crisis of 2008 came the Arab Spring and Occupy Wall Street. "We are the 99%" rang out around the world. Everywhere I heard the call to stand and fight. To mark this moment, to take courage in this spirit, I put that call to music.
– Mat Callahan

lyrics

Stand and Fight

When the power of the lie is strong
Wake up, the spell is broken
Tell the difference between right and wrong
There’s an end in sight
If we stand and fight
Get up!

CHORUS:

Everybody got to stand and fight
If we want to see the tables turning
Everybody gonna see the light if we
Stand and Fight
Stand and Fight!

Got us praying in the Church of Fear
Got us worshipping our own enslavement
One thought can make it disappear
To rebel is right
Got to stand and fight
Get up!

CHORUS:

BRIDGE:

I know, you know, we know
our common enemy
I know, you know, we know
we got our unity

Stand and fight-want to change the world?
Stand and fight-want an end to poverty?
Stand and fight-want an end to war?
Stand and fight-want to free humanity?
Stand and fight-everybody, everybody
Stand and fight-yeah!
Get up!

CHORUS:
