Nina: a story of Nina Simone: a story of Nina Simone / Todd, Traci N.; Robinson, Christian (ill.) 2021  Book
Todd, Traci N. Book
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication New York, G.P.Putnam's Sons, 2021.
Description 52pPink spine
Summary/Abstract Born Eunice Kathleen Waymon in small town North Carolina, Nina Simone was a musical child. She sang before she talked and learned to play piano at a very young age. With the support of her family and community, she received music lessons that introduced her to classical composers like Bach who remained with her and influenced her music throughout her life. She loved the way his music began softly and then tumbled to thunder, like her mother's preaching, and in much the same way as her career. During her first performances under the name of Nina Simone her voice was rich and sweet but as the Civil Rights Movement gained steam, Nina's voice soon became a thunderous roar as she raised her voice in powerful protest in the fight against racial inequality and discrimination.

Nobody gonna turn me 'round: Stories and songs of the Civil rights movement / Rappaport, Doreen; Evans, Shane W. (ill.) 2006  Book
Rappaport, Doreen Book
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication Massachusetts, Candlewick Press, 2006.
Description 64pBrown spine
Summary/Abstract This is the concluding book in a trilogy that chronicles the black experience in America. Rappaport draws on songs, poems, memories, letters, court testimony, and first-person accounts to provide a moving portrayal of the experiences of African Americans from the 1955 Montgomery Bus Boycott to the Voting Rights Act in July 1965. The book introduces little-known as well as famous figures and incidents in a way that is fresh and informative. One example is the story of Mose Wright, who testified in the Emmett Till murder case-a black man who had never spoken up against a white man, but is determined to tell the truth today. Evans's earth-toned oil paintings enhance the stories with images that are by turns poignant, sad, hurtful, resigned, determined, hopeful, and triumphant.
