Description
Sometimes history misplaces or forgets important people who dreamed, fought, served, made changes in our lives, and affected history’s path. Introduce your students, through story and song, to ten African Americans whose contributions to society, culture, our nation, and the world should be celebrated and never forgotten. Included are: The Soldier Henry Johnson; The Activist A. Phillip Randolph; The Journalist John Russwurm; The Fighter Jack Johnson; The Singer Mamie Smith; The Film Maker Oscar Micheaux; The Politician P.B.S. Pinchback; The Preacher Adam Clayton Powell; The Entrepreneur Madame C.J. Walker; and The Explorer Matthew Alexander Henson. The narrative script is a terrific teaching tool, providing interesting facts and information about each person and his or her contributions. This is a great resource for African American History Month celebrations, and for multicultural and interdisciplinary studies. This budget-stretching book includes the piano/vocal scores, reproducible vocal parts, narrations, and a piano/accompaniment CD. Grades 4-8. 25 minutes.
