On “Americans”, Janelle ends Dirty Computer with an ode to America’s racist habits and traditions.

This track was featured in the emotion picture for the album in the ending credits. “America” recently came into play when Monae officially came out as a “queer black woman in America.”

And although racism is definitely one of the prevalent topics discussed in this song and album, it is important to acknowledge that with this record, Janelle Monáe is making an enormous amount of effort to also bring up other social issues in America including (and not limited to) sexism, homophobia, sexual freedom, immigration policies, and police brutality. This last song of the album, “Americans”, serves as the culmination of all these themes and a powerful call to action.
