Sing a song full of the faith that the dark past has taught us.
Sing a song full of the hope that the present has brought us. In
1900, in Jacksonville, Florida, two brothers, one of them the
principal of a segregated, all-black school, wrote the song "Lift
Every Voice and Sing" so his students could sing it for a tribute
to Abraham Lincoln's birthday. From that moment on, the song has
provided inspiration and solace for generations of Black families.
Mothers and fathers passed it on to their children who sang it to
their children and grandchildren. It has been sung during major
moments of the Civil Rights Movement and at family gatherings and
college graduations. Inspired by this song's enduring significance,
Kelly Starling Lyons and Keith Mallett tell a story about the
generations of families who gained hope and strength from the
song's inspiring words.
