  5. What impact did it have on the U.S then? • There wasn’t very much entertainment in the U.S back then • The invention of the radio was important because people were able to listen to music more and get their information better • New music helped with entertainment and gave people a sense of inspiration, depending on the message of the music.

  6. What impact does it have on the U.S now? • Music is now a part of our every day lives • People sometimes feel relaxed by music. Others feel that it is good for helping with emotions, as they are able to relate to the emotions of the singer or songwriter • Doctors and therapists also use music now to help patients with anxiety or to help change the person’s behavior • Songs today may inspire us to contemplate what is being told in the lyrics and relate it to our lives • This can be a negative or positive effect depending on the song and the message that it is giving.

  8. Oral History • Interview with Walta Lark: • In the 20th century, African American artists listened to Rhythm and blues, while whites often listened to country music. • African Americans listened to Rhythm n’ Blues because they didn’t really enjoy the music that was being played on the radio. They wanted music that they could relate to • This music didn’t have much of an impact on most people except for the ones that enjoyed it. • Later on in the 20th century, Elvis Presley and Jerry Lee Lewis took music from blacks and made it their own.
