| Title | Sunday Bloody Sunday: the Intersection of Music and Social Justice |
| Summary | This thesis explores the question: can music create social justice change? This question holds great power, because if music has power to institute change through community-building and the residual impact of empathy, then music, along with the arts, can work towards peace-building and social justice changes in a world where police brutality, discrimination and other human rights violations are raging. My analysis shows the importance of Irish history and music to American musical styles and how both helped created protest and rebel songs that raised funds for human rights causes and joined people together in community to work towards change. |
