We had a good discussion this week about protest music. I liked when we discussed our paragraphs as a class, and what they meant to us. Although not everyone did them, it was still a good discussion on what information people found out.
On the topic of 9/11, it was a very dark time in American history. I enjoyed learning about the different viewpoints on how Americans were taking the aftermath. I enjoyed learning about all of the different artists who raised money for the fallen victims, and there points of view as well.
Protest music can be used for many different things; mainly to protest against violence, war, hatred, and others. It is a powerful subject to discuss, and is something to be taken seriously. Protest music can unite people as well as divide people. It has been used throughout history to discuss appropriate and inappropriate manners.
