Background

hudsonstavrou67 — 2024-02-08 17:25:48 UTC

In the Antebellum Period, the Slaves sang a lot of songs to keep them motivated and engaged. Sometimes, they were forced to perform concerts. They sung songs such as spirituals, work songs, moans, dance music, game songs, and lullabies.

How does the culture you found impact today? Is it similar or different? How?

The slave music impacted today by giving us many songs that we can study. They also influenced blues and jazz. However, the culture that it influenced is very different because it is no longer about slavery and more about good beats.

Where can you find it now/Does it still exist?

These songs of the enslaved no longer exist. They influenced many forms of music like jazz and blues, but they aren't very similar at all.

It allowed slaves to get through their daily work.

How was it making money?

It never made money, because the slaves had no rights and would simply sing to motivate themselves in tough times. Sometimes, however, slave owners would make the slaves sing for entertainment.

How did it influence other parts of culture?

It influenced religion. Many of the songs were religious, and inspired many people to become religious.
