A much shorter, two-hour version, called Get Up, Stand Up: The Story of Pop and Protest, aired on PBS in September 2005, hosted and narrated by co-founder of Public Enemy Chuck D. The PBS version focuses mainly on the American history of protest songs.
The title is borrowed from the reggae protest song Get Up, Stand Up by Bob Marley and Peter Tosh.
