    People use music as something to communicate with others without expressing our selves by using words. To express to others who may not understand where we are coming from. Anyone could give out a long political speech if they so choose to just for them not to understand what you are trying to put through to their heads. But when expressing yourself through song and dance your putting out a lot more then you could ever put in words. When your giving the political speech people can choose to ignore or not pay attention. But when doing in through dance and beautiful musics that explains how you are felling or explains the way you have to live out your life people tend to pay the attention that you are longing for.

    African Americans used song in their everyday lives. Singing was tradition brought from Africa Americans by the first slaves in history; People would call their songs spirituals ... I guess you could say that it is a strategy to communicate to other slaves that are less fortunate then they are
