Cemeteries hold a special significance in African American culture because they provide an important and elusive link in tracing African heritage - a practice made even more difficult by the institution of slavery. Borrowing its name from a traditional spiritual, "Lay Down Body" provides a unique glimpse into some of the oldest and most fundamental values of African American culture, many of which are preserved only in cemeteries.
"Synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
