Feat Songs of Protest and National Pride Doris Wellington

Feat Songs of Protest and National Pride is a classic epic poem that reveals the struggles and triumphs of the African American experience. It depicts in metaphoric and literary language the power of unity and collective faith, labor and partnerships that forged a new America at least in terms of the understanding that African Americans along with sympathizers and colaborers of their struggle to obtain freedom and equality would not allow such mistreatment of those who were a part of the fabric of this country. Feat Songs inserts historical names and events indigenous to the struggle of African Americans and seeks to not only protest the abuse and atrocities that held this country in the grips of one of its darkest hours, but to celebrate and hail that period in history as a testament to the collective strength and will of people who refuse to be passive in times that history calls for change. Feat is an anthem of conquest and victory for all who endeavor to be change agents rather than spectators in the arena of life.
