Ever since I learned about time displacement of time I think it is such interesting topic becuause there are thousands of examples of displacment throught history. The funny thing is that no one really thinks about. For example, during the black and white migrations during the early 1900s records were a type of time displacement. I mean think about any kind of recording of music it allows anyone from any time the means to be able to listen to the songs/songs at their own free will. Gone are the days of having to go to the opera house and listen to a live performance. In today’s busy world we would find that very inconvenient.

However, during this time when records were being made so was the line between white and black musicians. Record labels were segregated and the genre of music was too. White artists were known for singing hillbilly music. They would dress up in overalls and sings about some random things that did not make all that much sense. There were also different norms between white artist and black artists. For example, Cowboy Copas in his song Filipino Baby basically talked about the love of his life but only in terms of individual body parts, which sounds creepy. But there were many sounds about by white male artists singing about their minority colored lovers but if it was unheard of for a black male artist to sing about his white lover. It most likely would not have ended very well if a black musician had because of all the racial tension during this time period.
