P.O.D.'s "Youth of a Nation"


  1. READ the lyrics first - annotate on your paper.
  2. FAMILIARIZE - flip the page and see the bio, history, vocab, and lit terms - read.
  3. LISTEN to the song online (video below of lyrics) - while listening, write possible "topical themes" in the margin (i.e.: hatred, gun violence, bullying, etc...).  Try to come up with at least EIGHT!
  4. QUESTION - choose 4 questions to complete from numbers 1-10.  Answer thoughtfully showing an in depth analysis with more than two sentences a piece.  Answer completely.
  5. DISCUSS the question #12 on TodaysMeet (click on the link)
    • At the end of the song the narrator says he's "tired of all the lies." What kind of lies does society tell the "youth of the nation" that lead to these negative responses from youth, activities?
