The twin acts of singing and fighting for freedom have been inseparable in African American history. 'May We Forever Stand' tells an essential part of that story. In this rich, poignant, and readable work, Imani Perry tells the story of the black national anthem as it travelled from South to North, from civil rights to black power, and from countless family reunions to Carnegie Hall and the Oval Office.
