The Breakdown of Blowin' in the Wind
This song was written in 1963 by Bob Dylan and was very inspirational in the time. It was about the Civil Rights and Anti War movement. The lyrics of the song describe the struggles of African Americans and young soldiers who were getting drafted and sent off to the war. This song also slightly alludes to how no one in the government who was sending these kids off to fight felt guilty and no one knew the answer to how they could just do this and not feel remorse. This song does a marvelous job of exemplifying all the questions surrounding this time and the opinions and confusion of certain people in the country who was anti war and wanted the youth home safely.
