"This volume on black Texas folklore is a fresh and fascinating contribution to African American history."-- Journal of Southern History, "[T]he editors have contributed significantly to making our past relevant to our present in Juneteenth Texas , a collection of essays that explore African-American folkways and traditions. Drawing upon the expertise of folklorists, musicologists, filmmakers, historians, anthropologists and just plain folks . . . the objective is to use the prism of African-American folklore to enlighten all Americans about our common culture. . . . So evocative is the writing on musical folklore, one longs for a companion CD to add even more vitality to . . . an excellent text."-- Dallas Morning News
