Annotation

A pivotal facet of this explorative article includes “Weird Al” Yankovic’s (20th-21st centuries) blend of comedy and informative content centered on culture in the U.S., employing the popular music genre to transfer ideas in modes that may be more nice for broader audiences and that could be employed to aid classroom instruction.
