Problem

THE WIZ is full of scenes of liberation, which inevitably leaves the characters searching for a new place of safety, acceptance, and freedom-a new home. In the nationalist, separatist beliefs that girded the Black Arts Movement one might read a search for "home"- a place liberated from white oppression, where black people could have something of their own that was not defined by the white mainstream culture." Finding home is not just about a sense of "belonging" in our communities, but also about being at peace with ourselves in the search. Choose 2 songs from THE WIZ that address this theme. Explain how and why you think the songs address this theme and cite at least 3 phrases from the lyrics of each song to support your answer.
