Protest Song Search
British North America in the 1800’s in not the only time in history where people were upset with what was happening in the world!
Your mission is to find a protest song from the last 50 years that touches on a topic which was important at a moment in history.
There are many different examples of protest songs throughout the ages!
Here are some things to do to increase your search success:
1) Talk to your parents and grandparents! (they were ALIVE during the 60’s and 70’s- probably the most protest heavy years in history!)
2) Look it up on the internet (there are tons of sights about protest songs throughout the ages)
3) Raid your parent’s (ask them first!) vinyl collection
(chances are good they have got some of the actual records!)
Criteria:
1) Print out the lyrics of the song on the computer and burn the song onto a CD (we will listen to it in class)
2) Do some research on the song and include the following:
- a short biography of the artist who wrote it
- the meaning behind the song (what the artist was trying to say)
- the year that it was written and the important events that were happening at that time in the world
- 2 other interesting facts about the song
Please present your information (with the lyrics) in a creative way using the CD case. Make it look like an actual CD!
