Welcome!!!



Hi! Welcome to the first post on The Gospel Highway.
The Gospel highway was a metaphor for the traveling gospel quartets and caravans from the 1930's to the 1960's. It was a highway full of small churches and high school auditoriums where the African American gospel artists could play and spread hope to the hopeless communities in which they played. These artists traveled through horrible conditions set forth by The Jim Crow Laws; separate but equal under the state. Yet they still carried the message of hope. They are the true heroes of that time.

So everyone hop in and lets take a ride down this highway together.
