Our First 100 Days is a compilation album that was released track-by-track from 20 January to 29 April 2017. The album was sold as a subscription for a one-time payment of $30, and one song per day was released during the first 100 days of Donald Trump's presidency of the United States.[1] Proceeds from the album's sale were donated to causes "threatened by Trump's proposed policies,"[2] including Southerners on New Ground[3] and the People's Climate Movement.[4]
