Song Assignment – Mr. Banker.
Description
This is for my Sociology class. The assignment requires the following: This assignment requires you to analyze the cultural medium of music and make connections between the material in the course and what the song is about by analyzing the lyrics. –The song I’ve picked for this assignment is Mr. Banker by Lynyrd Skynyrd The objective is to show that you’ve read and can think critically about society using the cultural medium of music. The goal is to connect the material from the chapter — the terms, concepts, and theories – to the lyrics of the song and then tell me what the different connections you make mean about society. This means, you should really think deeply and critically about the lyrics and how they depict the social world. –The chapter I’ve picked for this song is chapter 10, which is on poverty. The major focus of this paper is the lyrics and not the artist, not the group, not the album, not the period when the song was written, not the music video, etc… Do not stray from an analysis of the lyrics. If you do, you will automatically receive a zero (0) and I will stop grading your paper. I’ve attached the following documents for the writer: -The song w/lyrics that I picked for the assignment (Mr. Banker by Lynyrd Skynyrd) and you will use Chapter 10 (Poverty) for this assignment. -The detailed instructions the professor put together that provides A LOT of information on what she is looking for in regards to formatting and content. **PLEASE READ THIS** -Samples of this song assignment for reference You can access the textbook at https://bookshelf.vitalsource.com/#/user/signin ask support to send log ins Works Cited page will contain ONLY the textbook and the song
