Monday, May 4, 2020 – Conflict Theory Connection 🙂

  1. Step 1: Pick out a song that the lyrics can be connected to Conflict Theory. Provide the following information:
    1. Name of Song:
    2. Artist of Song:
    3. Genre of Music:
    4. Link to Song:
  2. Step 2: Provide a example where you QUOTE THE LYRICS to make a connection to conflict theory. This means you should have something liked this:
    1. EXAMPLE FORMAT: In [song name], [artist/group] say, “[quote from song].” These lyrics connect to conflict theory because they [include your explanation here].

NOTE: If the song that you are using has lyrics that may not be 100 percent PG, that is okay. A lot of songs are not. However, I do ask that you use **** to make it school-appropriate. Keep it classy. 🙂
