1.Factory workers often created music that servd as a form of protest and a way to get them through the long hours of the workday.

Life for these workers was difficult becasue these workers lived in poverty. These workers also had to work constantly. So these workers created songs so they can all sing together and get through the long hours. The workers would sing the songs so it would seem that they worked short hours instead if long restless hours. With the creation of the songs, it showed how much of a creative mind these workers had.

how the Beatles portray the wild west through song.

The Beatles portrayed the wild west just how we have made it look. They believed it was just cowboys, saloons,and showdown. I understand why they portrayed it that way because they way we have told stories and made movies made it look like that. I believe that they are right,that's how I imagined the wild west. The reason why like i said the movies,stories,etc.. We have been basically thought that's how it was. 

"Six Word Story" for the tale of a family making the journey West.

Gold, free land; homesteading,better life.
