Join us for an unforgettable performance of music, led by Dr. Kathy Bullock, carrying a people through bondage and into freedom. Songs of Slavery & Emancipation is more than a concert, it is a living tribute to resilience, faith and the unbreakable spirit of a people. Compiled by Swiss scholar and musician Mat Callahan, Songs of Slavery and Emancipation is a collection of songs composed and sung by slaves either preparing for, or commemorating, revolt. To this collection is added the songs of the abolitionist movement, dedicated to the eradication of the slave system. Many of the abolitionist songs were composed by fugitive slaves or free Black people, and were widely disseminated in the Northern States between the American Revolution and the Civil War. This tour had all its funding slashed by the current regime due to the nature of its content, Black History. This workshop and concert will be a fund raiser for the tour and you will be able to give generously on the ticket page.  An 8-state tour from Berea, KY into Canada is stopping at sites along the Underground Railroad, performing works from the Songs of Slavery and Emancipation Project. This tour brings together the Berea/Jubilo singers, and will provide a singing workshop with history under the direction of Dr. Kathy Bullock. Together they weave a powerful tapestry of narratives and melodies rooted in the history of enslaved people’s journey to freedom and the abolitionist movement.
