Wade by BeccaGurl

Wade in the water
Wade in the water, children
Wade in the water
God's gonna trouble the water
^These are lyrics from a song runaway black slaves would have sung whilst travelling the "underground railroad" before the abolition of slavery in US
We're learning about this in English literature right now. It's fascinating
The picture? I tried to draw what I felt from the song. This song has become a thing with my English class
I don't see/make enough art with black people in. They're gorgeous.
