Rolling Stone talked with Laura Jane Grace about all the right-wing backlash to the new song “Your God.”
Grace says the song was well-received at the event, though, which was, essentially, a protest against the current state of America, which, under the Trump administration is apparently trying to erase trans people. “That song is the most relevant song I have right now to everything that’s going on,” Grace says, stressing that she ran the track by Sanders’ team first. “It’s a little profane, but out of all the songs I played, that was the one everyone connected with immediately. It’s a straight-up protest song. I don’t know what else that event was supposed to be other than a protest rally.”
