Explore the rich history and powerful messages of 'Songs of Slavery & Emancipation', a project that presents previously undiscovered songs by enslaved individuals. These songs, composed from as early as 1800 to the Civil War, advocate for resistance against slavery. This collection highlights long-lost songs from the abolitionist movement, dispelling common myths about the era. The double CD features thirty-one songs performed in traditional styles alongside an 80-page liner note booklet containing complete lyrics and insightful essays. A companion book documents the sources and context of these newly revealed anthems. Published by the University Press of Mississippi in June 2022, this project is a crucial addition to any history or music enthusiast's collection.
