Protest Music

Protest music was known to be very popular. A lot of artists were against segregation, war, laws, and the government. Protest music from back then, African American artists wrote the song "When Will We Be Paid [For The Work We've Done]". It was about wanting peace between all races and that they should be given a better life for all that they have done for everyone. The song shows the lives of "low-class" African Americans, including slavery and the horrors they went through. Protest music is still being made until this day. A band named System of A Down made a song named "BYOB". It was basically about the government staying back, and "partying", enjoying their life while they send "the poor" to fight in the wars they start. The song blamed the government for doing nothing. 

Protest music could bring many agreeing people together and could even convince them to argue for what they desire.
