Songs from the Civil Rights Movement
By Open Center Staff
During the Albany Movement, King said, “The songs are playing a strong and vital role in our struggle. They give the people new courage and a sense of unity. I think they keep alive a faith, a radiant hope, in the future, particularly in our most trying hours.”
In honor of the upcoming workshop, Healing Power: An Introduction to a Vocal Community with Ysaye Barnwell, which explores the historical, social and political context of African American music, we’ve put together a playlist of Songs from the Civil Rights Movement.
