I’m curious about the photo of the choir that would sing for Lincoln..these are supposedly refugees/contraband of war- yet all of them are holding choir books - am I to assume that all of them could read/understand words from a choir book since most Black slaves could not read at that time?
@@ehzAxemuzikdo you actually want to believe that ? In the presentation the author was telling about how the information was being transmitted by letters. Reading and writing has nothing to do with the transference of thought. Just because a fool says so doesn't mean it's true !
