Description
"Unlike most other immigrants, the majority of Africans were brought to America against their will. But despite these harsh beginnings, they have established strong communities and a rich culture. Through a fascinating collection of primary documents - including slave songs, memoirs and diaries, and speeches from the civil rights movement - Dorothy and Thomas Hoobler revisit African American history. Here, African Americans tell their story in their own words. Well-known figures such as Frederick Douglass, Jackie Robinson, Langston Hughes, Ralph Abernathy, and Spike Lee - as well as many who are unknown - contribute their voices to this collection. Like any family album or scrapbook, the pages also contain period photographs, illustrations, and reproductions of other memorabilia." --,Back Cover.
