Can anyone summarize or explain this to me? In the 19th century, we started to see the rise of popular culture being positioned with urbanization, industrialization, and democratization. As we get these machines that can do massive things, we also start to put those machines into cities. We started to see bigger and bigger populations and that was urbanization. Then through that, we see large numbers of people in cities looking for things to do and that democratization is really, it's not you know them necessarily claiming their freedom although plenty of that happens. We see plenty of worker strikes and plenty of resistance to the way things are in these cities. But we also see them looking for outlets, looking for entertainment, and that's a gap that popular culture fills, and we'll see the different ways it does that but lots of meat, you know, lots of ways in which the masses are going to dictate you know where popular culture goes or what's popular and that was different like when you look at culture before this you know it was often the elites that dictated because they were the ones that we're paying for the art in the sculptures and things like that in popular culture we start to see more of the common folk supporting popular culture they're the ones buying the magazines they're the ones attending the theaters and things like that, and so we get this idea of mass production and mass culture we started to see the mass-produce and then we also see a culture that a vast culture you know we have to understand the 19th-century cities became huge
