Now there’s a video to accompany “The Community of Hope,” the second single off British rocker and iconoclast PJ Harvey’s soon-to-be-released The Hope Six Demolition Project that has divided opinions in the District.

The song is about gentrification in Southeast D.C. and refers to a D.C. school as a “shit-hole” and a neighborhood as a “drug town.” Politicians running for office in namechecked Ward 7 told us this week they were not pleased with the tune. Since then, word has reached Harvey’s shores that one of our politicos compared her musical prowess to Piers Morgan’s broadcasting skills, which had led one writer to call us a “cowtown.”

Harvey has not commented on the scuffle.

The video begins with a clip from the tour Harvey went on with Post writer Paul Schwartzman, and mostly consists of shots of D.C. (though Washington City Paper points out that there may be a few errant New York City scenes in there as well). Singers from Ward 8’s Union Temple Baptist Church listen to “The Community of Hope” on an iPhone before singing the song’s final refrain, “They’re going to put a Walmart here”

Other songs on The Hope Six Demolition Project include “River Anacostia” and “Near the Memorials to Vietnam and Lincoln,” and the album drops April 15.
