| Sumario: | "In Hoecakes, Hambone, and All That Jazz, Rose M. Nolen explores the ways in which those Missouri "immigrants with a difference" - along with other Africans brought to America against their will - developed cultural, musical, and religious traditions that allowed them to retain customs from their past while adapting to the circumstances of the present." "Nolen traces the cultural traditions shaped by African Americans in Missouri from the early colonial period through the Civil War and Reconstruction and shows how those traditions were reshaped through the struggles of the civil rights movement and integration. Nolen demonstrates how the strong sense of community built on these traditions has sustained African Americans throughout their history."--BOOK JACKET. |
