Making Freedom - African Americans in U.S. History
We received five volumes of this paperback sourcebook series which cover from the beginnings of our country to 1970 and is a collection needed in every school library. Not only should it be there, it should be used, for it gives an accurate depiction of ALL Americans during the various historical times.
The first book is True to Our Native Land: Beginnings to 1770. The second book is A Song Full of Hope: 1770 -1830. Book three is Lift Every Voice and covers the years from 1830 -1860. Book four: Our New Day Begun: 1861 -1877, and the final book is March On To Victory: 1877 - 1970. The books have been prepared by Primary Source, Inc.
The content not only contains historical data, but also features essays by scholars in African American history. But, this is not a dry re-telling of facts. The writing is clear, acccessible and involving. There are lesson plans (written by teachers, for teachers), an excellent glossary, an accompanying CD featuring all the primary sources, plus supplementary materials, a chronology of events, an annotated bibliography and recordings of music. Heinemann is the distributor of this series.
