“He Does Not Speak for Me” is a song that reaches far beyond any one election, political party, president or country: a government does not always represent the beliefs of its people.
It’s about separating ordinary citizens from the actions of their leaders.
It’s about remembering that people living on opposite sides of a border have more in common with each other than the governments speaking on their behalf.
It’s about refusing to see another country’s people as our enemies only because political leaders tell us they should be.
It’s about recognizing that millions of people around the world live under governments they may disagree with, fear, or have very little power to change.
That is why I believe the message of “He Does Not Speak for Me” can be understood not only by Americans, but by people in many countries around the world.
I wrote the lyrics to and used AI to compose the music for this song.
For Americans, the upcoming midterm elections opportunity to participate in our democracy.
Whatever you believe and whoever you support, please take the time to learn about the people and issues on your ballot and vote.
Our voices matter.
