"By tracing key compositions and performances around the world --from James Weldon Johnson's 'Lift ev'ry voice and sing' that mobilized the NAACP to Nina Simone's 'To be young, gifted & Black' which became the anthem of the Congress of Racial Equality-- Anthem develops a robust recording of Black social movements in the twentieth century that will forever alter the way you hear race and nation"--from publisher.
