Throughout history, primarily down south after the rise of slavery, there were race issues between blacks and whites. This all came to a head in 1896, the ruling of Plessy vs. Ferguson, in which segregation was ruled to be \"separate but equal\". This event fueled the further racism issues to rise.<\/p><\/div>\r\n <\/dd>\r\n <\/dl><\/div>\r\n

Throughout these harsh and confusing times of prejudice and racism, people found their way through music and other forms of expression. For instance, \"Girl Groups\" formed from the years of 1958-1966. Although the girls began to express themselves, they also felt like \"toys\" and a lack of expression.<\/p>\r\n

The transition from jazz to funk occurs, which is seen when Tommy Passarella and Tommy Grice begin their music careers. Music, to them and to many others, is seen as a passion and a savior, saving many from crime and such in Trenton, New Jersey.<\/p><\/div>\r\n <\/dd>\r\n <\/dl><\/div>\r\n

From the 197os to 1980s, mainstream social protests decreased and counter-protest movements occurred through funk music, creating the social control movement. The mid 1970s appears to be known as the disco era. During this time, funk mirrors the transition of America to the Jim Crow Laws from the stretch of the 1890s to the 1960s to the 1970s of equality. There was also a backlash against disco in 1979 that promoted new music and new feelings for musicians. This ultimately produces frustration for many. <\/p><\/div>\r\n <\/dd>\r\n <\/dl><\/div>\r\n
