Nashville was given the Nickname ‘Music City’ by England's Queen Victoria after receiving the Fisk University Jubilee Singers in her court in 1873. The group, made of mostly those formely enslaved, put Nashville on the musical map. —Fisk University opened in Nashville in 1866 as the first American university to offer a liberal arts education to “young men and women irrespective of color.” Five years later the school was in dire financial straits. George L. White, Fisk treasurer and music professor then, created a nine-member choral ensemble of students and took it on tour to earn money for the University. Every one of these students had been enslaved. The group left campus on October 6, 1871. Jubilee Day is celebrated annually on October 6 to commemorate this historic day. The first concerts were in small towns. Surprise, curiosity, and some hostility were the early audience response to these young black singers who did not perform in the traditional “minstrel fashion.” One early concert in Cincinnati brought in $50, which was promptly donated to victims of the notorious 1871 fire in Chicago. When they reached Columbus, the next city on tour, the students were physically and emotionally drained. Mr. White, in a gesture of hope and encouragement, named them “The Jubilee Singers,” a Biblical reference to the year of Jubilee in the Book of Leviticus, Chapter 25. Continued perseverance and beautiful voices began to change attitudes among the predominantly white audiences. Eventually skepticism was replaced by standing ovations and critical praise in reviews. Gradually they earned enough money to cover expenses and send back to Fisk. In 1872 they sang at the World Peace Festival in Boston and at the end of the year President Ulysses S. Grant invited them to perform at the White House. In 1873 the group grew to eleven members and toured Europe for the first time. Funds raised that year were used to construct the school’s first permanent building, Jubilee Hall. Today Jubilee Hall, designated a National Historic Landmark by the US Department of Interior in 1975, is one of the oldest structures on campus. The beautiful Victorian Gothic building houses a floor-to-ceiling portrait of the original Jubilee Singers, commissioned by Queen Victoria during the 1873 tour as a gift from England to Fisk.
Lake Lanier waterslide park
Y’all build a lake Lanier waterslide park
On the top of black town..There was a black community
Underneath that lake….you see this is how you know America
Is racist, y’all build a water park, just like y’all put Central Park on senance villiage…
Why would y’all do that? Know what, I know why….
Y’all are erasin history….sayin it’s all in the past….
Y’all know I hope karma gives y’all the curse y’all deserve…
I heard it’s haunted……I heard some people go missin
If your families drown, they might see houses, buildings
Old schools and churches all in the lake….there could be ghosts
Swimmin in revenge….remember America got blood on their hands….
And they built water park with their bloody hands….
THE DISRESPECT!!!!
First of all y’all can’t hide the history, can’t disguise your guilt…
Maybe cos black people tell their stories about lake Lanier
On TikTok y’all got scared so y’all build a water park to conceal
More evidence…elders who live there tell tales of being there when
Their hometown is being washed over, sinkin into the lake…
In Georgia and all because of white people’s jealousy over
Black people’s success…all because we’re not supposed to have our
Own shit and be great in life…
I would love to burn that water park down to the ground…
I would love to burn it down cos what the fuck…
You know damn well, America is racist…. That hasn’t changed….

Joe Rogan says, “Fauci is the worst” and that everyone should read “The Real Anthony Fauci.”
“If ‘The Real Anthony Fauci,’ the book by Robert F. Kennedy Jr., is not accurate, he would be sued.”
Rogan said Fauci is different from those who simply got things wrong because he is “deceptive,” referencing Fauci’s handling of both the COVID and AIDS crises.
“This same game plan was played out during the AIDS crisis. And it’s a game plan where they’re in cahoots with the pharmaceutical drug companies, and they push this thing as being the only remedy, and they make tremendous amounts of money.”
