Sinossi
Excerpt from The Story of Jubilee Singers: With Their Songs
It was the natural result that the camps of the Union army should at once become cities of refuge for fugitive Slaves. A New England general, who had been in close political alliance with the Slave power until it raised its hand to strike down the Union, gave them a name and a recognized standing in the military lines as contraband of war. And by and by there came from the good President who had so patiently bided the time, the proclamation that made the army, in the aim as well as the inci dent of its work, an army of emancipation.

Valutazione del venditore 5 su 5 stelle
Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book chronicles the extraordinary journey of a group of freed slaves from the American South, who embarked on a mission to raise funds for Fisk University, a newly founded institution dedicated to educating their people. Facing a world still deeply divided by race, the singers, known as the Jubilee Singers, braved prejudice and hardship to share their unique blend of spirituals and slave songs across the United States, and later, Europe. The author weaves a compelling narrative, detailing the singers' experiences with discrimination, their struggle to overcome financial obstacles, and the transformative impact their music had on audiences. Through their story, we gain insight into the cultural and social landscape of a nation grappling with the legacy of slavery, and the power of music to bridge divides and inspire hope. This compelling story highlights the indomitable spirit and unwavering determination of the Jubilee Singers, whose extraordinary journey serves as a testament to the transformative power of education and the enduring legacy of the African American musical tradition.
