Mama Africa, as they called her, raised her voice to help combat these injustices at jazz clubs in Johannesburg; in exile, at a rally beside Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.; and before the United Nations.Set defiantly in the present tense, this biography offers readers an intimate view of Makebas fight for equality. Kathryn Erskines call-and-response style text and Charly Palmers bold illustrations come together in a raw, riveting duet of protest song and praise poem. A testament to how a single voice helped to shake up the worldand can continue to do so.\u003c\/p\u003e\n        \u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n        ","brand":"Miakarts Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49676609421552,"sku":"NEW0374303010","price":14.27,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/ethereallybeautiful.com\/products\/mama-africa-how-miriam-makeba-spread-hope-with-her-song-by","provider":"Ethereally Beautiful","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
