Thread Name: Politically incorrect songs
Subject: RE: Folklore: Politically incorrect songs
The arguement above by Q, "they can't be ignored, they are part of popular music history" is a load of crap. Of course they can be ignored. The whole idea of becoming "politically correct" is to grow up and show respect for your fellow man, regardless of colour or creed. These songs were popular when it was acceptable to murder, rape, and torture slaves who were denied there civil rights, and were sung as if to justify in such abuses. "Popular music history " of that era is totally unpopular today
