For this week, we look at the role of music in socialization. In Brazil, capoeira and its music was originally associated with thugs and "riff-raff" and considered a lower social class form of music and art form. Though the efforts of the Capoeira Mestres and other capoeiristas, this art form broke though those social barriers and is practiced by people of all social classes.
