For our last lesson in Social Studies for term 1, we learned about a concert called Live Aid. This concert was supported by people from around the world. People supported this because the money that is being raised will go to Ethiopia, a country in Africa. Ever since this concert happened and till now, a lot has improved in Ethiopia. Through this concert, people got the chance to eat 3 meals a day instead of just one. It helped the whole country even to this day.

For today's activity, we had to choose a song that was performed in the concert and why we chose that song. Here is the song that I chose and the explanation on why I chose it:
This is the song that I chose and the reason being is that I just like the song itself. It was sung beautifully and the audience also liked it. The song was engaging as well. This was also my favorite song that was performed in the concert.
Why do you think that musicians and music are significant to this day?
In my opinion, musicians and music are significant to this day because of the changes that they make to our community. Genres of music change as generations pass and the fashions and styles change with it. The live aid concert is a very good example. They raised a lot of money to support a country that is lacking food. They made a very big impact on the people who couldn't support themselves.
In my opinion, yes someone can. At this point in time, nothing is impossible. Everyone is aware of what has been happening around the world and is willing to help make a change. If they know that the concert is designed to help people, that would attract more people. Even though there's a pandemic going around, the concert may happen online. It can also happen in the next few years once everything comes back to normal. So my answer is yes.
Is this a form of protest?
No, I don't think that Live Aid was a form of protest. Nothing harmful happened to anyone during the concert that was done purposely. Everyone came along for the same reason and supported it till the end. The reason why they also had the concert was to help people in need. They are helping people out and in return, they get the support that they need to be able to.
