While the basic purpose of the Silk Road remained mostly the same, its’ goods and destinations went through many changes. The road started as a small transport route for Eurasian merchants, but later turned into an important economical and cultural necessity. Once Asian products, like spices and fabrics, were used by Europeans, they became dependent on them. This also occurred in Asia, and it began to shape both cultures.

How does David Crystal win over so much logic and emotion from his audience? Do the rhetorical tools that Crystal uses aid in his overall success of the argument? Crystal is the author of many books on language such as “The Gr8 Db8” which discusses text language and its impact on society. The author’s undermined approach is shown through historical context, statistics and pathos to effectively reveal the mass spread of English, and the potential impact it will have on the world. Crystal connects with the audience to make them realize that something as simple as the language we speak, could have more of an impact on the world than ever imaginable.
African Slave Trade Change Over Time During the time period of 1500 to 1888, the African slave trade stayed the same in some areas. But, a few things also did change. Such as, the religion of the traders, the gender of the slaves, a different traded regions, and even trading at all. But, the ways it stayed the same were the ways of being a slave, the race, ways of transportation, and how they got more slaves.

Sub-Saharan Africa had much longer exposure to Islamic culture influences than to European cultural influences. Scholars and merchants learned to use the Arabic language to communicate with visiting North Africans and to read the Quran. Islamic beliefs and practices as well as Islamic legal and administrative systems were prominent in African trading cities on the southern edge of the Saharan and on the Swahili coast. During the three and a half centuries of contact between Europe and Africa before 1800, Africans yielded minimal territory to Europeans. Local African kings scrutinized the European trading posts that they permitted along the Gold and Slave Coasts and collected profitable rents and fees from these traders and merchants.
Being the “melting pot” country, led to many immigrants coming from many different countries, and they bring the sounds with them. During the early stages of America, many immigrants come from Europe and Africa. In the beginning the term “Root music” was used to describe music made by white of European ancestry music, often in the south. As the century progressed, the definition of folk music expanded to include the song styles - particularly the blues - of Southern blacks as well. In general, folk music was viewed as a window into the cultural life of these groups.
Soul music is a mixture of gospel with rhythm and blues. Although soul developed much earlier than 1950, it first gained popularity within the late 1950s and came to be called soul jazz which self-consciously used melodic figures or riffs derived from gospel music or folk blues. Soul has its roots in African-American culture and first made its appearance in the
It was the first form of Black English language which was spoken and written. Gullah is not only a language it is a culture. Native people from the islands in South Carolina and the edges of Atlanta Georgia speak the Gullah Vernacular. As black began to migrate into other regions a new dialect known as Ebonics was created. Ebonics consist of two words ebony which means black, and phonics which means sounds.
In the early 20th century black Americans began to combine both of the terms to describe their music. Within a few decades, the term “rock ‘n roll” is synonymous with a certain type of music.
