Preferred term

music and social protest  

Definition(s)

  • The main influences that shaped the role of music in social protest in Malawi were colonialism, the two World Wars, poverty, gender inequality, postcolonial dictatorship, disease, and Malawi's oral culture. Given the repressive colonial and postcolonial governance and the controlled electronic and print media, protests about social conditions and poverty could only be subtle and oral.
