Chi-Raq

Chiraq-Poster




Il soggetto della Lisistrata di Aristofane è un tema modernissimo, che è stato ripreso e adattato a moltissime realtà contemporanee. L'ultimo esempio è il film Chi-Raq di Spike Lee in cui la vicenda dello sciopero del sesso contro la guerra è la violenza è ambientato nelle periferie meridionali di Chicago, il cui soprannome unisce Chicago all'Iraq a sottolineare la violenza e il crimine che fanno da padroni. La satira prende di mira le gang di Chicago che saranno costrette a deporre le armi dallo sciopero del sesso delle donne.

Somewhere in the world a boy or girl is being buried by their mother
Somewhere in the world there is violence, brother against brother
Do your dance, get in your zone, they can't take you out that
Do your dance, get in your zone, they can't take you out that
Every hood, every block, somebody's dying over nothing
All this hating gotta stop, you gotta know life is worth something

So do your dance, get in your zone
Nah they can't take you out that
Just do your dance, get in your zone

Kids is dying in front of their house
They giving up life, ain't no hope for them making it out
They 15 buying a two
Just to feel more safe when they gotta make it home from school
Cause you know how the innocent die
Our sons need love every week, it's a funeral line
And bitches wanna party in peace
Get the east, to the west, to the south side moving their feet
Right now moving their feet
Right now moving their feet
Get the east, to the west, to the south side moving their feet
Right now moving in peace
Right now moving in peace
Get the east, to the west, to the south side moving in peace
