  • African American Music Influence

    253 Words  | 2 Pages

    Music is a unique aspect within the African American subculture (Williams & Banjo, 2013, p. 196). Similar to other cultures, African Americans work diligently to maintain their assets and traditions (Templeton, 2008, p.54). Dated back as early as the 1600s, when their forefathers were bought to America (Barrow et al, 2007, p393), music influenced their racial identity. Music stimulates the need to contend with life, interact with feelings (Williams & Banjo, 2013, p. 200), and to master self-efficacy (Barrow et al, 2007, p. 398) no matter the age of the listener. Whether it is gospel or secular music, lyrics in music influence the actions (Majied, 2013, p. 269) and shapes the brain’s development, especially during adolescence.

This music became a way of adapting to a new language, a new religion, and a new, but difficult way of life. Often, the songs were a means for them to communicate with each other and express their troubles and hopes for a better life, and even to signal the flight to freedom. African-American music has been a fundamental part of the black experience in the U.S., primarily due to the cruel system of slavery. It then evolved into what we refer to today as gospel music.

I believe that institutional discrimination is apparent in today 's society. The video provided, "Race the House we Live in," explains that individuals came from all over to enter into America (California Newsreel, 2010). This was referred to as a melting pot; however, policies favored white immigrants (California Newsreel, 2010).
