“Git on Board, Lil’ Chillun”

Children and Music in the Diaspora (by Melanie Zeck)

You go to school, you study about the Germans and the French, but not about your own race. I hope the time will come when you study black history too. Never forget to sing the songs of your mothers and fathers.

—attrib., Booker T. Washington

There is no other subject in the curriculum that touches in so many places, the developing nature of the child, as does music… . If music is ever to be a real force in human life, it must be brought to the concrete possibility of being heard, loved and learned in childhood.

—Frances Elliott Clark
