Black Journey

Black Journey is the remarkable voyage of a people from the villages of Africa to modern-day America, visiting over 200 years of the African American heritage. The play begins its portrait with traditional African chants and progresses to gospel music, then continues right on up the musical scale through jazz, the blues, rag, swing, rock n’ roll and today’s rap. Each step is a powerful and ever-evolving art form that will forever echo the African American experience-now and in the future.
