Pop culture is what you want it to be

Tinker

Our Pop culture in American is apparently what you want it to be as we live it for the most part. Because just take a quick look at the Pop culture in American for the past 100 years so we can realize that we can't really mix the different time periods in our American life as we know it to be now.

The Victorian age 1837-1901 was a part of the American people moving out West, with their entire family. And for the rest of the American population who keep living back East. To tragically start fighting and dying by the thousand’s in a civil War between the States. 1861 to 1865. 

I'm trying to see the real Pop culture back then by looking at the music, and social behavior of what they considered social fun. We must be careful not to judge the way people lived back then with how we feel about how we live now. Because if we mixing what we thing about everything now into how the American people lived then. Well that world be a waste of time for us filling up these pages with nothing right. As we keep trying to see what our country was really like back then. 

Because that was a different time and place in our country’s history. I try not to judge people in the past with my feeling of how I feel about everything now.

That was then and this is now, so let’s try and see them anyway even though we will miss a lot of the true reality of how it was to be living in America from 1937 – 1901. The Victorian age in America.

That this quick look-see would be from just some of the music then, when you go deeper into their lives in the Victorian age in America. A lot of what I never realized about them is starting to jump out at me. Like real live people.

That I can start feeling them somehow because I am really trying to know who they were. The more attention I pay to them the closer I get to them. If I don't watch out I might ever start liking them.

Goodness I couldn't imagine that could be possibly and not likely to happen.  I am living in the 21 century and my music is full of songs that they never heard of. So how could I feel any-kind of kinship and affection for the American people living in the so called Victorian age in America? I have looked at them in the past like I was looking at old relics from another age. Why would I feel anything about them, when I don't know them?

Did you know that?

Women of the American West led the nation and the world into the struggle for female voting rights, known as the "suffrage movement." This remarkable suffrage success story began in 1869, when Wyoming Territory approved full and equal suffrage for scarcely one thousand women. Contagious excitement for women's rights spread quickly across the Rocky Mountain landscape. "This Shall be the Land for Women!" cheered western journalist Caroline Nichols Churchill upon Colorado's stunning victory by popular vote in 1893.

How do you like that? I looked at people living at that time like straight lace unbending stern unemotional people full of fear with no sense of humor. Where did all that social fairness passion come from?
