Today’s Assignment

It has been said that in elementary school you learn to read, but after that, you read to learn. In this assignment, you will be “reading to learn” about the effect of African music and culture on our American music. Please read the online article, “Songs of Struggle and Spirit” written March 23, 2017 by Mac Dressman and Yewande Ilawole. This article is found on thehoya.com/songs. We will then work together in class, on Monday, to build a timeline that shows the great impact of African roots on our American music that has developed.
