So what is the sound of Black freedom? Perhaps it is best to begin
by thinking reflexively about the probing question posited by W.E.B.
Du Bois: “Do the sorrow songs sing true?”

# data[].attributes.body
And so by fateful chance the Negro folk- song— rhythmic
cry of the slave— stands today not simply as the sole American music, but as the most beautiful expression of human
experience born this side the seas.
—W.E.B. Du Bois, The Souls of Black Folk

Layered diegetic and soundtrack music e.g. cheering, waves, boxing ring. With the soundtrack we choose we want to experiment with laying different pitches over it to alter the emotional impact when we want it to.

'I am my ancestors wildest dreams'

'Why not a Black choir singing the spiritual into the heavens of history?'

'I felt safer among the alligators than among the white men'

'If a Black person took up a pen to write, that pen should be used as a sword to wage war against the oppressive white racist regime'

'There may be no better word to encapsulate Black American history than community'

'a stark and painful reminder that for people of African descent, the United States is still a place of “half- freedom'

'By 1624, a tapestry of ethnic convergence in North America was already being woven'
'The entire tapestry of American history'
'There are lessons that can be drawn from this tapestry of stories
that point to a simple truth— Black lives still do not matter in American society'

'And collectively this choir sings the chords of survival, of struggle,
of success, of death, of life, of joy, of racism, of antiracism, of creation,
of destruction— of America’s clearest chords'
