Music

Music is imperative because it allows people to unite under one idea. For instance, Sarah Dessen says, “Music is a great uniter. An incredible for something that people who differ on everything and anything else can have in common." This tells us that everywhere you go, you will see very diverse people with unique ideas. However, music, especially in schools, helps people connect in ways they didn't know possible. This leads to diversity as well as unity, and can also stimulate a better educational environment for the students. Thus, Dessen emphasizes the idea of unity through music that will allow the world to learn through music's importance.
