Sažetak
This paper defines the place of music within African American community and the American nation as a whole. Black music bears witness to the horrors of slavery, the first years of emancipation, the burden of segregation, and the striving for civil rights. My topic is deeply embedded in African American social history. African American music is one of the treasures of the United States. Spirituals, ragtime, the blues, jazz, rhythm and blues, gospel, soul, and hip hop are some of the richest and most distinctive products of American national culture. Developed in the face of centuries of racial discrimination, poverty, and other challenges, this music testifies to the resilience of African and Caribbean musical origins and the creativity of individuals and communities.
