I enjoyed reading this article. My favorite part was the section that discussed Gospel music as an outlet for Black women to express themselves. I also liked that it touched on how women were not allowed to become preachers in the Baptist churches. That was a large topic of discussion when I was growing up although my church did have two female associate ministers. Other churches in my community did not.
I enjoyed this article. I feel that Gospel music is not jut an outlet for women but for everyone to express themselves. I enjoyed the discussion of women preachers in Baptist churches. This is a really subject because many people do not feel that women should be allow to preach however I feel God is the one that makes that decision.
How awe inspiring this article is! Not only is it easy to read but it is extremely interesting. I enjoyed reading this article because it delivered chunks of historical events which I was unaware of. However, I am quite familiar with gospel music and blues music. Nevertheless, I am grateful for the information used in this article to parallel the gospel and blues music as a spin-off of each other. It is intriguing to gain new knowledge about how various music developed as a result of racial discrimination, sharecropping, the Mississippi River Flood of 1927, country, and folk creating diverse musical heritages. Surprisingly, Ernestine Washington of Newark, New Jersey song “Come Through the Water, Come Through the Flood was not recorded until 1943. Findings of historical events and feelings derived from historical events are usually retold in some kind of genre.
