The song “Glory” by Common and John Legend is one of the greatest and most influential songs you could listen to in this century. It appeals to emotion by relating current acts of racism to those of the civil rights movement. Common says “that’s why Rosa sat on the bus‚ that’s why we walk through Ferguson with our hands up.” He wants those who have had to endure similar experiences to know they are not alone and those who have not to understand the movement. This song reminds me everyday of experiences

“DONTTRUSTME” is an artistic masterpiece by pop duo 3OH!3. The song is about a girl who is labeled a “ho.” The majority of the definitions of the word “ho” are quite insulting and offensive‚ so for my analysis‚ I shall provide my own.

Analysis of Sympathy The metal cage holds in those who are turned away from society and hurts them in the process. The poem Sympathy was written by Paul Laurence Dunbar. It explores the racism that imprisons his soul. Dunbar uses the caged bird as a symbol of racism. The entrapped bird is hurt and injured while great things are happening around it. The tone is pleading and anguish over the racism that is expressed toward the black community. It explains the wonderful sun and beautiful weather

9. My Theme Song A theme song that I chose for myself was Some Things Never Change by Foesum. Whenever I play this song I usually feel two emotions: joy and sadness. The sadness comes from not being able to see friends from high school as much as I was used to. The joy comes from knowing although we do not see each other as much we will always be there for each other. This song was a part of my life growing up in high school‚ all my friends listened to the same genre of music called G-Funk. Whenever
