Multiculturalism in K-12 Music Education

I was originally inspired to do this research project after a lecture series at JMU by Amy Lewis on Anti-racism in the music classroom. Throughout my personal music education, I rarely participated in non western musical experiences. It caused me to take a look to see if there was literature that examined this issue. While many scholars have addressed it, there is still a long way to go in solving it. It took me a while to narrow down exactly what research question i wanted to pursue. From talking to teachers in my engagement project I was able to see exactly how the issues were effecting teachers in this area. From this, I was able to see how realistically teachers can make a difference and implement multiculturalism.
