1. The video below provides a first-person narrative of a younert
to ag couple's passion for the arts as they transform their
community from an 'arts' desn 'arts' showcase providing a venue
for activist musicians to find audiences they might never
otherwise connect with. Please watch the video called
Building Community through the arts
which demonstrates how important every single individual can
be in building a deep sense of community.
In your initial post, please address the following:
· Why might musicians use their music to raise awareness and
consciousness about different social issues? In your response
please use at least one example (from the video, from your own
community or from a different resource) in order to illustrate
your points.
· Artists and musicians often choose to utilize public spaces.
Why might a song, focused on a social justice issue, be more
effective in public spaces rather than in a private home turned
music venue? Do you think there would be fewer or more
restrictions on the types of messages when presented in the
public forum? Defend your position.
· Benoit and Elaine are powerful examples of community
building. In a separate paragraph describe a venue you would
create if given the chance. What form of the arts would you
focus on (dance, music, reading poetry, etc.) and what themes,
social justice issues, or community issues would you present at
the grand opening? Explain your choice.
Please be sure to validate your opinions and ideas with citations
and references in APA format.
