They came in the holds of overcrowded ships, packed in among cargo
and animals. They were sold to others to work as hard and under as
dismal conditions as their owners chose. They were taken to the
West Indies, to Barbados, to the American colonies, and beyond. A
familiar story, is it not? But these immigrants, derived of all
personal freedom, were Irish, and their servitude started long
before black slavery was common. Even among those not enslaved,
many were treated nearly the same as indentured servants, or later
as contract labor on the railroads, mines, and other dangerous
tasks. Your eyes will be opened by this book if you dare to allow
them to be, as you learn more of this nearly forgotten part of
world history.
In the past, they were the Queens, strong women who took an
unconventional path. They were the Blues Women, and they changed
the face of music. To undertand their history is to understand not
only a great deal about black history but about the history of the
country as a whole. Today, blues women still change the face of
music and explore the feminine side of the human condition. This
book explores the lives and legacies of eighteen great blues women,
old and new. From Ma Rainey and Bessie Smith and other legends to
Janis Joplin, Bonnie Raitt, and more contemporary blues women, this
book explores their art and tells their stories.
