interesting topic...

I want you to think about both of these songs: This is America by Childish Gambino

Im Not Racist by Joyner Lucas

Explanation:

These songs both had political backgrounds and influences. ((I advise you to do some googling on their meanings, I am going off somewhat on my own))

This is America was based off America's stereotypes and had metaphors about race and gun violence. He used his music platform to inform the world about the violence around them and his about his violent contradictions about being black in America.

Here is a link for a break down of the music video : https://time.com/5267890/childish-gambino-this-is-america-meaning/ (I don't know if it is an reliable source b/c media outlets are biased sometimes)

I'm not Racist is a song that was written about the state of race relations in America and how far apart blacks and whites are in how they see things in America. He used his platform to show the world the mindsets of specifics races (whites and blacks) to one another in their own county. "First, the white man unloads his frustrations and his views on Black Lives Matter, the NFL anthem protests. There are even potshots taken against 2Pac and Eminem.

Then the black man reacts. He takes on white privilege, cultural appropriation, and attacks against former President Barack Obama." - CNN news paper. And thrroughout the song both of the men insist "I'm not Racist".

Both of these men used the music platform to spread awareness of the political matters of the people in the United States.

-Hope I helped.

the negative way that it shaped life was by having a feudal system where only the nobles and the christian church while it was oppressive to the peasants and specially to women. the positive way that it shape life is by introducing the artisan class when the feudal system fell. it change the attitudes towards religion and it also introduced what was known as knightly chivalry.

-hope this : )
