Info:
An album of French coal miners' songs, some dating back to the 19th century, published in 1980 by the trade union CGT. On the same topic, and if you understand French, I can only recommend this excellent documentary by Jean-Luc Raynaud: "L'honneur des Gueules Noires" (2012). But if French proves too much of a challenge, there's always Barbara Kopple's amazing "Harlan County USA" (1976), which also includes a few protest songs.
