Motown and Funk Brothers Reflection

Some things to consider:

Most everyone knows a little bit about Motown or has heard the music, even if they cannot identify it as the Motown Sound.

What did you learn in this section of the course about the economic, social and cultural impact of Motown?

The significance of Berry Gordy’s business model, the impact the music had on race relations and politics?

On fashion and popular taste?

Had you ever heard about the Funk Brothers prior to seeing this film?

Are you surprised that so few people know about their contribution?

Do you think they have been treated fairly?
