In Songs of the Unsung Tapscott shares his life story, recalling his childhood in Houston, moving with his family to Los Angeles in 1943, learning music, and his early professional career. He describes forming the Pan Afrikan Peoples Arkestra in 1961 and later the Union of God's Musicians and Artists Ascension to preserve African American music and serve the community. Tapscott also recounts his interactions with the Black Panthers and law enforcement, the Watts riots, his work in Hollywood movie studios, and stories about his famous musician-activist friends. Songs of the Unsung is the captivating story of one of America’s most unassuming heroes as well as the story of L.A.'s cultural and political evolution over the last half of the twentieth century.

Download or read book The Unsung Song written by Samuella J Conteh and published by . This book was released on 2020-09-27 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Samuella Conteh's THE UNSUNG SONG is a collection of poems with a rallying call for global peace; a hymnal of religious tolerance and a praise-song celebrating the joys of motherhood; an anthem to patriotism and a jingle for social justice; particularly, the roles and rights of women and youths. It is rather ironic to think of these sonnets, elegies and lyrics as 'Unsung Songs' when most of them have already been prize winning poems that have featured in online publications and magazines in and out of Africa. Is it not equally strange to think of Samuella Conteh herself as an 'Unsung' poet, when she is serving as an ambassador of poetry, adding many accolades to her growing trophies on her mental piece? True to the nature of this poet, humility is a recurrent theme throughout this orchestra of peace that calms our turbulent world, while serenading the hearts and minds of all readers as they join the poet in her soulful requiem evoking the 'unsung songs' of humanity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Coretta Scott King Honor-winning author tells the moving story of the friendship between a young white boy and a Black WWII veteran who has recently returned to the unwelcoming Jim Crow South. For Gabriel Haberlin, life seems pretty close to perfect in the small southern town of Birdsong, USA. But on his twelfth birthday, his point of view begins to change. It all starts when he comes face-to-face with one of the worst drivers in town while riding his new bicycle--an accident that would have been tragic if Mr. Meriwether Hunter hadn't been around to push him out of harm's way. After the accident, Gabriel and Meriwether become friends when they both start working at Gabriel's dad's auto shop, and Meriwether lets a secret slip: He served in the army's all-black 761st Tank Battalion in World War II. Soon Gabriel learns why it's so dangerous for Meriwether to talk about his heroism in front of white people, and Gabriel's eyes are finally opened to the hard truth about Birdsong--and his understanding of what it means to be a hero will never be the same.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unsung Song (II) is a continuation of the first collection of poems (Unsung Song-my sunset) previously published by the author. The book plays with words and explores the underlying humour in the different topics treated in the book. It also continues its journey by towing the same line as its predecessor by using rich paradoxes while examining our everyday life and mocking the things we sometimes take for granted. "Believe it or not, Woman has a MAN in it And if you do not believe me then What is a MR doing in a Mrs.? MALE in a Female HE inside a She And ADAM inside a Madam" "I remember my fear my fast beating heart but slowly she spread her legs apart" Above all, don't believe everything you read!

Download or read book Unsung written by Schomburg Center and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2021-02-16 with total page 657 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new historical anthology from transatlantic slavery to the Reconstruction curated by the Schomburg Center, that makes the case for focusing on the histories of Black people as agents and architects of their own lives and ultimate liberation, with a foreword by Kevin Young This is the first Penguin Classics anthology published in partnership with the Schomburg Center, a world-renowned cultural institution documenting black life in America and worldwide. A historic branch of NYPL located in Harlem, the Schomburg holds one of the world's premiere collections of slavery material within the Lapidus Center for Historical Analysis of Transatlantic Slavery. Unsung will place well-known documents by abolitionists alongside lesser-known life stories and overlooked or previously uncelebrated accounts of the everyday lives and activism that were central in the slavery era, but that are mostly excised from today's master accounts. Unsung will also highlight related titles from founder Arturo Schomburg's initial collection: rare histories and first-person narratives about slavery that assisted his generation in understanding the roots of their contemporary social struggles. Unsung will draw from the Schomburg's rich holdings in order to lead a dynamic discussion of slavery, rebellion, resistance, and anti-slavery protest in the United States.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Bestselling Author Tamera Alexander Comes the Final Novel in the Sweeping Belmont Mansion Series A master violinist trained in Vienna, Rebekah Carrington manages to wheedle her way into an audition with the new maestro at the Nashville Philharmonic. But women are "far too fragile and frail" for the rigors of an orchestra, and Rebekah's hopes are swiftly dashed when the conductor--determined to leave his mark on the world of classical music--bows to public opinion. To make matters worse, Adelicia Cheatham, mistress of Belmont Mansion and Rebekah's new employer, agrees with him. Nationally acclaimed conductor Nathaniel Tate Whitcomb is Nashville's youngest orchestra leader. And despite a reluctant muse and a strange buzzing and recurring pain in his head, he must finish composing his symphony before the grand opening of the city's new symphony hall. Even more pressing, he must finish it for the one who first inspired his love of music--his dying father. As Tate's ailment worsens, he knows Rebekah can help him finish his symphony. But how can he win back her trust when he's robbed her of her dream? As music moves us to tears yet makes our hearts soar, A Note Yet Unsung captures the splendor of classical music at a time when women's hard-won strides in cultural issues changed not only world history--but the hearts of men.
