From the shores of Africa -- American bondage, American freedom -- Rebels, resistants, and outlyers -- Symptoms of liberty and Blackhead Signposts -- Many thousands crossing over -- Strange river in Canaan -- Beyond the North Star -- A ferment of fugitives -- Called to go forward -- On Jordan's stormy banks -- The blood-red ironies of God -- "We are coming up" -- Slavery chain done broke at last -- The challenge of the children -- Black hope, black soldiers, and black codes -- The struggle ends, the struggle begins.
