Jubilee

Companion Volume

This exhibition, a companion to the Schomburg Center's four-color illustrated history of the same name (published by National Geographic), documents the courageous and innovative ways that enslaved Africans developed their own unique culture in the midst of slavery, and examines how that culture developed and flourished through the years after emancipation to the turn of the century.
