This course examines how music reflects and shapes issues of social class, mobility, and cultural identity. We’ll explore the role of music in civil rights movements, the emergence of hip hop as a response to urban inequality, and how the digital divide affects who gets to create and be heard. Through listening, discussion, and case studies, students will analyze how music can challenge, or reinforce, social boundaries.
