Book Reviews of Lift Every Voice and Sing: A Pictorial Tribute to the Negro National Anthem

Book Review: Important History for Black Children
Summary: 5 Stars

When I was in high school, I made a point of memorizing the words of all three verses of "Lift Every Voice and Sing". We must never forget our history, and be ever joyful of the opportunities of today and tomorrow. If you have never heard this song before, you can find the 1st and 3rd verses sung on the 2nd CD in the 3 CD set "100 Best Loved Hymns". The choir is likely an all-white choir, and I think the 2nd verse was just to painful for them to sing. However, we should remember the pain of American slavery, and vow to never let such ugliness occur again. We must know our history in order to move forward as a nation.
