Chapter Six

Freedom in the Air

The Lessons of Albany and Birmingham

“Charlie Jones looked at me and said, ‘Bernice, sing a song.’ And I started ‘Over My Head I See Trouble in the Air.’ By the time it got to where ‘trouble’ was supposed to be, I didn’t see any trouble, so I put ‘freedom’ in there. That was the first time I had the awareness that these songs were mine and I could use them for what I needed.”

Bernice Johnson Reagon

of the Freedom Singers

A black protester arrested in Birmingham.
