The article analyses the use of popular culture in political contexts, as a means of expressing and managing conflictual views in the public discourse. Music as a type of art is a way in which public actors mark their presence in the public space, and in which they articulate the interests of a given group in relation to other groups, while social inequalities translate into artistic activities. From this perspective, popular music may be then seen as a manner of expressing subjective needs in the social struggle for recognition. An example of a political attitude manifested by musicians discussed in the article are the musical representations connected with the Polish ‘black protest’ and with the issue of women being excluded from public discourse, presented in selected songs by the Polish bands. The issue of abortion became a starting point for criticising the Polish government and the culture that accepts unequal treatment of women in public and private space. The discussed artists who recorded songs referring to this issue are stylistically varied: El Banda, Girls on Fire and Żelazne Waginy.
