Songs of the spirit. Part II

Description

The popularity of nihilistic and satanic rock music has been blamed for the rise of violence among American youth. The influence of music in American culture is immeasurable. One case in point is the important role that Black sacred music has played in the survival of African Americans throughout their history. The evolution of music in the Black experience is rooted in the spiritual and captured in the songs for freedom.
