Discuss your thoughts and opinions regarding music being used as a form of protest or social commentary. Is it necessary? It is helpful or useful? Does it serve the composer or performer's intended purpose? Choose music from one specific event to develop your discussion (i.e., the Vietnam War, the Civil War, 9/11, the Civil Rights movement, social inequality issues – there are many!).
