Today in social studies we were learning about spiritual songs. To me spirituals are something mostly slaves sung as an upbringing / lifting their spirits. them songs gave them hope and gave them something to look forward to. This helped slaves very much due to many people managing to escape.

Aiden, a nice description of spirituals. It is interesting how songs are used to uplift people spirit and give messages even since song began. Next time it would be nice to have an example of a spiritual.
