Working on my American Roots music paper. I have to write who i think changed the world with his music and why. This is what I have so far. If you see any spelling or grammar mistakes plz let me know.....


Bob Dylan made an impact in popular music and culture for over fifty years. His most famous works are from the 1960s when he became one of the leading figures in social unrest. He was initially inspired by Woody Guthrie to make music expressing humanity and free will, then later he would change his style to political protest in favor of the Civil Rights movement. Some of his songs were used as anthems for anti-war, and civil rights movements such as "The Times They Are a-Changin" and "Blowin' in the Wind." He also started using the electric guitar at this time, which had a mixed reception initially, but would become influencial down the years in rock music. Dylan made a lasting impact on rock music by defining the spirituality, seriousness, lyricism, tune, and depth as the template for it. He popularized music in an intellectual way, and expanded folk culture to a bigger audience.

I asked someone when they were due recently and they weren't pregnant.

Horrible. Just horrible.

Horrible was when I ran into an old friend's wife one day, and I knew she was pregnant so I asked how things were going. Come to find out she had had a miscarriage like the day before. I had no idea, but I felt so bad and so small. Sorry didn't seem like enough to say.

Should there be a comma after anti-war? Since there are only two things in your series? Anti-war and civil rights.

Someone else back me up on this.
