At the Crossroads of Music and Social Justice - Activist Encounters in Folklore and Ethnomusicology
Indiana University Press
Music is powerful and transformational, but can it spur actual social change?
A powerful collection of essays, At the Crossroads of Music and Social Justice studies the meaning of music within a community to investigate the intersection of sound and race, ethnicity, religion, gender, sexual orientation, and differing abilities. Ethnographies from a range of theoretical frameworks uncover and analyze the successes and limitations of music's efficacies in resolving conflicts, easing tensions, reconciling groups, promoting unity, and healing communities. This volume is rooted in the Crossroads Section for Difference and Representation of the Society for Ethnomusicology, whose mandate is to address issues of diversity, difference, and underrepresentation in the society and its members' professional spheres. Activist scholars who contribute to the volume elucidate possible pathways and directions to support musical diversity and representation.
At the Crossroads of Music and Social Justice is an excellent resource for readers interested in real-world examples of how folklore, ethnomusicology, and activism can, together, create a more just and inclusive world.
