Effects of screen time on brain development

Screen-based entertainment increases central nervous system arousal, which can amplify anxiety.

Millennials are more forgetful than OAP's; they've outsourced their memory to Google, GPS, calendar alerts etc. Columbia University found that when people know that they'll be able to find information online easily, they're less likely to form a memory of it

Music touches my soul. When I am not singing, dancing or playing an instrument, I am writing articles about the songs that I hold dear.

It seems that music has always been a basic part of human life. It is amazing to think that archaeologists have discovered instruments made of bone dating back to between 35,000 to 40,000 B.C.E. Music is not only a part of humanity's ancient history, but can remind us of our own past experiences. Looking back at the music of any period in history offers us a sense of life as it was, and a peek into that slice of time. The music of the 1960s and 1970s offers a unique political outlook that was punctuated by the issues of the time.

This song, written and sung by the poetic Bob Dylan, gained popularity through a cover version by Peter, Paul and Mary in 1963 and has been covered by many other artists, including Stevie Wonder. Many consider this song the quintessential protest song of the time, but Bob Dylan stated, "This here ain't no protest song or anything like that, 'cause I don't write no protest songs." The ambiguous answer within the lyrics of this song reveals that "the answers are blowin' in the wind."

A soft gentle sounding song with a strong revolutionary intent, this was a favorite hippie anthem during the '60s and '70s and both the original version and its endless number of covers are still very popular today. John Lennon wrote the profound and evocative lyrics accompanied by one of those rare tunes that seem to stay with us forever. The song was written in 1971. Yoko Ono, when interviewed about it, said she watched John compose the entire song, lyrics and all, while seated at a grand piano. He did it all in one session! Music has the power to facilitate change, and this song's continued popularity is a testament to its enduring beauty. It is a call for us to "imagine" a better world.

Rolling Stone magazine praised "Imagine" as John Lennon's "greatest musical gift to the world."
Imagine no possessions I wonder if you can No need for greed or hunger A brotherhood of man Imagine all the people Sharing all the world...
Essential Lyrics From "Imagine"

How '60s and '70s Music Took on War

Music is inextricably woven into the spirit of human nature. Often, we can identify a song with only a few notes, and with those notes, find ourselves taken back in time, swept away by a memory and feelings. Music has the power to take us places through our senses. The music of the 60s and 70s offers an excellent example of this kind of experience.

'60s music represents a unique connection between music and history. We are, again and again, drawn to this unique music for both its quality and for its reflections on one of the most profound social changes in our history. Other than the Civil War and the Great Depression, it is difficult to recall any other period when such great forces were at work. Spanning just over a decade, the United States was confronted with two history altering changes: The Vietnam War and the rise of the civil rights movement. It was a time in which young people began to examine, and in many cases, reject the lifestyles that their parents and grandparents had known. From hairstyles to free love, to the music itself, the signs of social change were everywhere.

The music was the voice of anti-war protests and the civil rights movement, inviting people to come together through song. Bob Dylan wrote many of the greatest songs of the '60s and '70s and, later, denied that his intention was to write protest songs. Hippies of the time paid little heed to Dylan's remarks and deemed some of these songs not only protest songs, but anthems to the "movement."

The truth is that music, even music which appears to be a protest written in order to give voice to some cause, in the end, is interpreted by the individual based on how it affects them personally. What may be a protest song to one person is a haunting and beautiful ballad to another. No matter how a song was interpreted, there is no denying that the music of the 60's provided an unstoppable momentum, a kind of Pied Piper of Hamelin effect, calling on the people to follow.

Today, these songs continue to work magic in the hearts of listeners looking for music with grit, honesty, and soul. Music that lacked the auto-tune sound that has regrettably and destructively become so prevalent in current popular music.

Thanks to radio, television shows, soundtracks, an endless number of movies, and, of course, being readily available for download, these songs continue to recreate the mood of the '60s and '70s. Simply put, these songs and their messages carry on as they were meant to, reminding us of the times in which they were born and the changes we have undergone. They have a connection to a time and truth that should not be forgotten.

Some of the Best Protest/Hippie Albums

11. "Teach Your Children" - Crobsy, Stills, Nash and Young

Album: Déjà Vu

Genre: Classic rock

Release Date: 1970

Label: Atlantic

Children are the future and, as parents, educators, and role models, it is our duty to teach them about the possibility of peace. This song was inspired by an image of a child holding a toy weapon. Graham Nash wrote the song to highlight the negative messages that can be given to children about war, either through images or unconscious behavior.

Essential Lyrics From "Teach Your Children"

And you, of the tender years can't know the fears that your elders grew by,
And so please help them with your youth, they seek the truth before they can die.

12. "If I Had a Hammer" - Peter, Paul and Mary

Album: Peter, Paul and Mary

Genre: Soft Rock

Release Date: 1962

Label: Warner Brothers

The first big hit by Peter, Paul and Mary, this song was recorded in 1962. It is about the power each individual has to promote change in the area of justice. It is considered a freedom song. The song was written in 1949 by Pete Seeger and Lee Hays and has been covered many times. It's even been translated into other languages such as Italian, Bulgarian, and Arabic.

Essential Lyrics From "If I Had a Hammer"
It's the hammer of justice It's the bell of freedom It's a song about love between my brothers and my sisters

13. "This Land Is Your Land" - Woody Guthrie

Album: N/A

Genre: Folk

Release Date: 1945

Label: N/A

Written as a parody to "God Bless America," this song became a protest anthem about the need for equal rights. Guthrie used a 'borrowed' tune and added his deceptively simple sounding, yet profound lyrics. Along with the clear message of peace, the song works so well because it is catchy and invites listeners to sing along. Although the song was written way back in 1944, the song experienced a rebirth when Bob Dylan and other artists recorded new versions of the song in the 1960s.

Essential Lyrics From "This Land Is Your Land"
As I went walking I saw a sign there
And on the sign it said "No Trespassing"

But on the other side it didn't say nothing
That side was made for you and me

Ready to travel back to a monumental moment in British history? Then check out our suffragettes facts and learn about the time when women fought for the right to vote..
What is 'suffrage'?
Suffragettes campaigning against the Liberal Party during the 1910 election.
' Suffrage ' means the right to vote in political elections.

It is a sad fact that throughout history, there have been many restrictions placed on who can and can't vote, based on things like age, gender, race, education, wealth and social status.

During the late 19th and early 20th centuries, men in the UK had the right to vote but women did not. Many people - including women - didn't believe that women should be able to vote. Even Queen Victoriacalled the fight for women's rights a "mad, wicked folly" - despite being a powerful woman herself!

The suffragist movement
A Suffragette procession through London, 1914.
In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, many women started to campaign for women's rights. The focus of their attention? The right to vote. This became known as the suffragist movement.

During this time, two main political groups formed, the National Union of Women's Suffrage Societies and the Women's Social and Political Union.

These groups came to be known by two different nicknames, invented by some newspapers who sought to ridicule them; the Suffragists and the Suffragettes.

The two groups used very different tactics to draw attention to their cause but their message was very much the same. They wore the colours purple, white and green and made banners, badges and sashes with the words ' Votes for Women ' displayed on them.

Who were the Suffragists?
Millicent Garrett Fawcett, President of the NUWSS addresses her suffragists at a meeting in Hyde Park, 1913.
The suffragists were members of the National Union of Women's Suffrage Societies (NUWSS) and were lead by Millicent Garrett Fawcett during the height of the suffrage movement, 1890 - 1919.

They campaigned for votes for middle-class, property-owning women and believed in peaceful protest. Millicent thought that if the organisation was seen to be thoughtful, intelligent and law-abiding, that they would win the respect of Parliament and in time, be granted the vote.

By 1900, the Suffragists' hard work was starting to make waves. Several Bills (a proposed law) in favour of women's suffrage won support in Parliament, but not enough to pass... Yet!

Who were the Suffragettes?
Emmeline Pankhurst - leader of the Suffragettes - being arrested outside Buckingham Palace in 1914.
Emmeline Pankhurst was a former member of the NUWSS and a supporter of women's suffrage. After becoming frustrated with the Suffragists' approach, she broke off and formed her own society - the Women's Social and Political Union (WSPU). The society was more inclusive and welcomed women from all different walks of life. Emmeline's daughters, Christabel and Syliva, were also active in the cause.

From 1905 onwards the Suffragettes' campaign became more violent. Their motto was 'Deeds Not Words' and they began using more aggressive tactics to get people to listen. This included breaking windows, planting bombs, handcuffing themselves to railings and going on hunger strikes.

Suffragettes and the law
Imprisoned Suffragettes wave through the windows of Holloway Prison, London, in 1909.
Many protesting Suffragettes were arrested for law-breaking and many went to prison. In further protest, Suffragettes would go on hunger strike (stop eating) in prison. To stop them from becoming ill, they would often be held down and force-fed by prison staff in a particularly unpleasant procedure!

To prevent any Suffragettes on hunger strike from dying in prison, Parliament introduced the "Cat and Mouse" Act. This meant that hunger-strikers were temporarily released from prison until they recovered - before being re-arrested and locked up again!
Emmeline Pankhurst (centre) and her daughter, Christabel (third from the left), are welcomed by friends and supporters after their release from prison in 1908.
In 1913, Suffragette Emily Wilding Davison stepped out in front of the King's racehorse during a race at Epsom, and died a tragic death after being trampled on. Whilst no one knows for sure what Emily was hoping to do exactly, it's believed she was trying to pin a banner of suffragette colours to the King's horse.

Emily's death and the cruel police treatment of the Suffragettes sparked public anger and gathered sympathy and support to the women's cause.

The suffragist movement during WWI

The outbreak of World War 1 changed life as people knew it - BIG time! In the midst of such huge international conflict, both Emmeline Pankhurst and Millicent Fawcett temporarily stopped campaigning and instead encouraged women to join the war effort in the spirit of national unity.

World War 1 also drastically changed women's role in society. Before the war, a woman's place had been in the home, cooking, washing, cleaning and raising her children. But when the war began, women were needed to lend a hand! Millions of men had been sent away to fight, leaving vacant jobs that were essential to keeping the country running. Many women went to work for the first time in lots of different industries - even in dangerous munitions factories making weapons for the war!

The Representation of the People Act
A Suffragette holds a 'Votes for Women' sign during a demonstration in London.
In 1918, the efforts of the women's suffrage movement finally had a breakthrough. A Bill was passed through Parliament that granted some women the right to vote. They had to be over the age of 30 and own property, or be married to someone who owned property. Despite the restrictions, it was still a big victory, giving 8.4 million women the vote!

However, there was still a long way to go until all women had the same voting rights as men - who could vote from the age of 21 regardless of property. In fact, it took another ten years until women received equal suffrage with men, in 1928.

How are the Suffragettes remembered?
A monument to Emmeline Pankhurst stands in Victoria Tower Gardens, London, next to the Houses of Parliament.
There is some divided opinion over the violent tactics the Suffragettes used to spread their message. On several occasions, they were lucky that no one was seriously injured, or even killed, by the bombs they planted. But there is no doubt that they are remembered as incredibly courageous, forward-thinking women who stood up for what they believed in - often laying their lives on the line in the process!

They paved the way for future generations of women. Without them, your grandmothers, mums, aunties, friends and sisters - even you! - might have had considerably fewer rights today.

That's not to say that the fight for women's rights is over. Around the world, including in the UK, men are still likely to be paid more than a woman for doing exactly the same job. And there are many countries today where women still lack basic rights that we take for granted.

So let's make sure the future looks even brighter for women's rights!
