Play God is an EP by Ani DiFranco, released October 7, 2016 as a digital single on Righteous Babe Records. With appearances by Ivan Neville, Terence Higgins, and Skerik; is an activist song.

In the words of Ani: “Play God” is a song that recognizes reproductive freedom as a civil rights issue. As a society, it is time to acknowledge that unless a woman is in control of her own reproduction, she is not free, and it is the responsibility of our American government to protect and ensure the freedom of all American citizens. It is time we get serious about addressing and achieving this great unfinished business of civil rights in America. The true emancipation and equality of women is dependent on it." ^[1]
