Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Story of the Negro, Vol. 2: The Rise of the Race From Slavery The Negro slaves always believed that some day they would be free. From the Bible - the only book the masses of the people knew anything about - they learned the story of the children of Israel, of the house of bondage, and of forty years of wandering in the wilderness, and they easily learned to apply this story to their own case. There was always a feeling among them that some day, from somewhere or other, a prophet would arise who would lead them out of slavery. This faith was the source of the old "freedom songs," which always had for the slaves a double meaning. Interwoven with the religious sentiment and meanings there was always the expression of a desire and a hope, not alone for freedom in the world to come, but of freedom in this world as well.
