I have a song to add and don't understand how to use this. It's "Build a Better World." I need to figure out how to link the site to here. Can either of you help me?

Billie-

To link a song:

1) click on the edit tab
2) on the right hand side of the screen, click on the link to "insert a link to a new page"
3) under "link type" go to URL
4) put in the url
5) check "open in a new window"
6) press okay
7) save!!

If you are trying to upload an mp3 of the song, i think you can just click on the tab (again on the right hand side after you click on "edit" that says
"upload images and files" and then just choose the song off your computer.

good luck!!

Hey Group, I like your site. The art, the analysis of nursery rhymes, and the annotated list of antiracist songs add a lot to the topic. The setup is easy to follow and the division of the content into two areas makes a lot of sense. Together those 2 elements illustrate how far children's music has evolved over the years to be more inclusive and less ethnically and racially offensive. Good job.
