Shout The Jubilee - Write Across America

Summary

A poem inspired by The McIntosh County Shouters video

This poem was inspired by one of the resources sent out earlier. I was fascinated by the McIntosh County Shouters and their legacy of song for storytelling, particularly the importance of Jubilee. I hope my poem honors their work and the history that they are telling so we don't forget. - Kevin
