What Does Gospel Music Have To Do With Black History

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. - Feb. 20, 2021 - PRLog -- Gospel Music was created as a coping mechanism to deal with the circumstances the slaves found themselves in. They used their ability to sing and hum as a way of sending messages to one another and to confuse their slave masters.
