Downhome Gospel: African American Spiritual Activism in Wiregrass Country
Jerrilyn McGregory
Explores sacred music and spiritual activism in a little-known region of the South, the Wiregrass Country of Georgia, Alabama, and North Florida. Jerrilyn McGregory examines African American sacred music outside of Sunday church-related activities, showing that singing conventions and anniversary programmes fortify spiritual as well as social needs.
