Born this Way by Lady Gaga
"Born this way" is a song by Lady Gaga released in 2011. The song is based on self-liberation and self-love, which entails loving every part of oneself regardless of gender, sexual orientation, and race. The concept of Lady Gaga encouraging individuals to accept themselves the way they are indicate that the music originates from the racial discrimination against African Americans in the United States. Historically, African Americans have faced prejudice from the whites regarding the blacks as inferior and ignorant individuals who do not deserve any position and place in the country. The album asserts, "… you're black, white, beige...Lebanese… (Gaga, 2011, 0:59). Thus, people should acknowledge themselves.
The women have faced gender discrimination in places of work as they are considered weak vessels who deserve to spend their entire time within the house, caring for the children and cooking for the family.

Thus, through the song, Gaga informs people that it does not matter because they cannot change how they were born and therefore should liberate themselves from the negative thoughts caused by other people within the society who discriminates against others. The album's message on self-acceptance reminds me of the importance of loving oneself to promote self-esteem. The song asserts, "don't be a drag, just be a queen" (Gaga, 2011, 0:45). Self-esteem enables one to engage in various activities which others may perceive to be complicated. For instance, self-acceptance would facilitate the African-Americans to live a happy life even if they face racism and discrimination from the whites.
