Answer:

Because of the cultural heritage that music carries.

Explanation:

The African songs were brought by the slaves to the American countries, where new techniques were developed with new instruments, forming diverse musical genres that characterized the life of black Americans before the American civil war.

Music was used by Africans and African-Americans as a way of expressing desires and needs that were ignored due to adverse political and racial climates.

The songs used by enslaved Africans were not composed for commercial purposes. They were created to transcend and transform. Music was used as a tool to achieve something greater for the good of the community.

For this reason, African Americans believe that because of this cultural heritage, it is in music that they can draw strength and inspiration from the works and the incredible ingenuity, perseverance and creativity expressed in music. These songs are proof that a great light can emerge from the darkest moments of life.

As result of world of war 1 what happened to the foreign colonies held by European powers
nataly862011 [7]

Answer: The mandate system authorized a member nation of the League of Nations to govern a former German or Turkish colonial area after the conclusion of World War I.  


Context/detail:

When World War I erupted, the Ottoman Empire sided with Germany as part of the "Central Powers."  In the end, the Central Powers lost and the Turkish  empire of the Ottomans ceased to exist as an empire.  Turkey remained as a country, but it lost control over other territories that it had held before.  Germany was stripped of its overseas colonial holdings.

The League of Nations created a system for governing former German and Ottoman territories, called "the mandate system."  There were mandate territories for former German territories in Africa and Asia, as well for former Ottoman territories in the Middle East.  

The former Turkish provinces of Syria, Iraq and Palestine in the Middle East were divided into a French mandate territory and British mandate territory. The British mandate rule over Palestine has much to do with the history of the development of the Arab-Israeli conflict.
