Multi-media Examples For This Week

Here are some multi-media examples we will discuss on Tuesday and Thursday interspersed through lecture. Please do not be confused: I am not asking you to direct your blog answer to these examples (with the exception of the Without Sanctuary movie that you WILL blog about); they are simply discussion items for in-class use.

I. Ethnic Notions (For Lecture Three)



II. Wade in the Water (For Lecture Three)
(Chorus)
Wade in the water.
Wade in the water, children.
Wade in the water.
God's gonna trouble the water.

Well, who are these children all dressed in red?
God's a-gonna trouble the water
Must be the children that Moses led
God's a-gonna trouble the water.

Chorus

Who's that young girl dressed in white
Wade in the Water
Must be the Children of Israelites
God's gonna trouble the Water.

Chorus

Jordan's water is chilly and cold.
God's gonna trouble the water.
It chills the body, but not the soul.
God's gonna trouble the water.

Chorus

If you get there before I do.
God's gonna trouble the water.
Tell all of my friends I'm coming too.
God's gonna trouble the water.

Chorus
