An introduction music lesson on Protest Songs - powerpoint This resources was created for middle / high school music classes and is an introduction to protest songs. I have used the powerpoint on-line and in the classroom and it can take 2 x 45 minutes to work through the whole presentation. There are 12 slides. The slides include the following artists and songs: Bob Dylan - Masters of War Sam Cooke - A Change is Gonna Come 2Pac - Changes There are links to the recordings, a brief historical intro and a series of musical questions for each artist. Questions can be answered verbally in class or as a written task. This powerpoint could be used for a cover lesson. It would also work as a great intro for any general music classes or choral classes looking at studying protest songs in more depth. There are some suggested musical extension tasks at the end of the powerpoint that you could use if you wanted the lesson to be the introduction to a whole unit.
