“It came from my mother. She was a singer, and literally every day of the week she sang at a different club in a different genre of music: country, R&B clubs, jazz clubs, church on Sunday morning where she was the music director, pop hits, soft rock. I grew up listening to all this music, so it was never one thing for me.” DifferentCountryMotherChurchMorningOne ThingWeekRocksListeningGrewDirectorsGrew UpJazzClubsPopsSingersGenreSundaySunday MorningDifferent GenresDays Of The WeekGenres Of MusicChurch On SundayDifferent Genres Of Music Author:Robert Glasper
“Four- and five-year-olds' play is permeated with the rankest sexism. No matter what their parents do and say, they play their momand pop roles in ultraconventional style. We've seen little girls whose mothers are doctors absolutely refuse to take the doctors' parts in their play, insisting that "only boys can be doctors," against all reason. Girls do more washing and drying of clothes, dishes, and babies than they've ever seen their own mothers do, and they turn their play husbands into TV-watching drones who do nothing but talk about money.” YearsChildrenLittlesMatterReasonPlayMotherTurnsGirlParentBoysRolesFiveFourStyleTvsBabyHusbandClothesDoctorsNo Matter WhatRefusePopsFive YearsSexismDishesWashingDronesFive Year OldsInsistingChildren Playing Author:Stella Chess
