Working Class Power

Class War — Paul Gagne & Social Correction

The Story

Music That Answers
To Movements

Paul Gagne is a songwriter, musician, and activist who built Social Correction as a vehicle for music that takes sides. Where most artists stay safely vague, Social Correction plants a flag — on working class solidarity, environmental survival, democratic accountability, and the quiet, relentless work of community organizing.

The project began with a conviction that music could be more than entertainment. That songs could carry the weight of a march, the clarity of a manifesto, the warmth of a mutual aid table. That art made with intention becomes a tool in the hands of people who need it.

The two full-length albums — Class War (2024) and Working Class Power (2026) — channel decades of grassroots energy into fully produced, emotionally direct music. It is not protest music for protest music's sake. It is an invitation to believe the world can change — and that we are the ones who change it.

Available on every major streaming platform, but built for the people who show up.

What We Fight For

The Causes Behind
Every Song

Economic Justice

The gap between what workers earn and what they create has never been wider. Social Correction music confronts wage stagnation, union busting, and the quiet violence of economic inequality. Strike and Class War name what mainstream culture won't: the economy is not broken — for the people at the top, it's working exactly as designed.

Key Issues

→Living wages and worker protections
→Union rights and collective bargaining
→Taxing wealth and closing loopholes
→Universal healthcare and housing security

Key Issues

→Transition to renewable energy
→Holding polluters and corporations accountable
→Environmental justice in frontline communities
→Green jobs and a just economic transition

Environmental Action

The climate crisis is not a distant threat — it is already reshaping lives, displacing communities, and concentrating suffering among those least responsible for causing it. Social Correction sees environmental justice as inseparable from economic and racial justice. The planet's crisis and people's crisis are one crisis.

Political Reform

Money controls politics. Gerrymandering suppresses voices. Voter suppression is a feature, not a bug. Democracy at Work and Civil Disobedience speak to a system that needs more than tinkering — it needs a reckoning. Social Correction believes in accountable government built to serve everyone, not just donors and incumbents.

Key Issues

→Campaign finance reform and ending Citizens United
→Expanding voting rights and ending suppression
→Ending gerrymandering and dark money
→Accountability and transparency in government

Key Issues

→Grassroots organizing and mutual aid
→Racial equity and civil rights
→LGBTQ+ rights and inclusion
→Immigrant equality and dignity
→Building durable coalitions across movements

Community Power

Policy is a lagging indicator. Real change happens when communities organize, when people build relationships across differences, and when movements create the conditions that force political action. Social Correction is in conversation with that work — and wants to be useful to it.

No More Wars

Bombs don't liberate people — they displace them, traumatize them, and enrich weapons manufacturers. Edge of the Empire calls out the U.S. machine of perpetual war by name. Social Correction stands against militarism in all its forms: the drone strikes, the economic sanctions, the occupations, and the genocides carried out or funded in our name.

Key Issues

→End U.S. wars, occupations, and military interventions
→Stop arms sales and the global weapons trade
→End economic warfare — sanctions that starve civilians
→Solidarity with Palestine — end the genocide now
→Accountability for U.S. war crimes abroad

The Sound

Music Built to Last
Past the Moment

Social Correction doesn't chase trends. The music is fully produced, melodically direct, and lyrically unambiguous — songs that can be listened to alone or sung together in a crowd.

Drawing on rock, folk, and working-class pop traditions, the sound is built to carry weight without feeling heavy. Hooks you can hum. Words that stay with you. Music that respects both the listener's intelligence and their time.

Two albums released across two years. More in progress. Every release tied to a cause, a season, a moment in the struggle that called for a response.
