African American Nationalism and the Revolution in Music .

             The African American population has fought hard to get where they are in today in terms of their courage, beliefs, and faith to accomplish what they have done in the fields of politics and music. They have been affective in the field of politics by having leaders such as Dr. Martin Luther king Jr. and Nelson Mandela lead them to a civil right society where everyone should be treated equally. .

             African Americans have revolutionized the way we see. The creation of new categories and new ways of expression have characterized this revolution. .

             In the field of politics, they won each and every battle they had to fight. One of the most important battles they faced was to influence their people own people to do right things and become one to achieve their goals in life. They made them believe in themselves in every way, that united they could do anything to become one with the white man.

             These leaders have inspired African Americans in many ways. A positive attitude, having faith in what they believed in, being strong, fight for their families and for what was right. An example would be Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. By using non violent protest he was able to promote a change in our society and make everyone aware of the injustices that African Americans were being put through. The fact that he helped, not only his own, but other minorities by asking equal treatment of citizens of all races, made him a true hero and role model for our country. On the other side, we have a man called Malcolm X. Similar King, he was also a leader who fought for justice and equality in America for all the races. Although he fought differently from Martin, X's legacy influenced African Americas and colored people to believe in their dreams. And then we have a man called Nelson Mandela. He is the hero in the African history who fought hard for his country to be where it is today.
