Create an eight- to ten-slide Power Point presentation tracing the evolution of African American music from the 1920s to 1990s. Your presentation should include an introductory slide, at least six topic slides, and a slide at the end of the presentation listing sources consulted for the project. Each topic slide should include an illustration and a minimum of three pieces of factual information about notable musicians and their unique contributions to popular music in the United States. Make sure to specifically address black influences on the emergence of the jazz, rock, and hip-hop, and how those influences advanced the popularity of African American music styles. Draw on factual information found in your textbook and other printed material. Internet material may also be used, provide the websites consulted are trustworthy and academically credible.
