Interpretive Leap

I decided to choose the song "Where is the Love?" by The Black-Eyed Peas. The song begins by allowing people to be aware that there is still racial disagreement going on in the world. It goes into depth about how people, even children, are being hurt by all the unjust, hurtful words and actions of being discriminated against. They are hurting because of all the harsh things said to them. By saying all these demanding things, people are just spreading more hate. The song is simply asking, "Where is the love?" It also mentions things about how nations are at war and dropping bombs. In the video, it goes around and shows faces of people from different ethnicities. It is trying to say we all need to treat each other more equal and love each other more. It pushes viewers to think further about racial equality, peace, and love.
