• 在苦难的岁月里，黑人靠歌声表达心中的悲愤，用民间 歌谣传递起义的信息，用诗歌抒发自己的心声。早期美国 黑人文学，表现了黑人劳动者的质朴淳厚、感情的深沉、 战斗中的刚毅和受迫害受奴役的生活，不少作品既有丰富 的思想内容，又有一定的艺术造诣。黑人文学的出现，使 美国文学具有更广泛的民族内容和更深刻的民主精神。美 国黑人文学真正开始于18 世纪，后在一代代非裔作家努 力下，经历了以休斯顿为领袖的哈莱姆文艺复兴（第一次 高潮，20 世纪20 年代至30 年代末），以赖特为领袖的第 二次高潮（20 世纪四五十年代），以诺主莫里森为领袖 的第三次高潮（20 世纪70 年代后）。
• 1938年1月16日，Bennie Goodman率领他的大乐队在纽 约卡内基音乐厅表演爵士乐，尽管，Bennie Goodman是 一个白人，但不止他的乐团里有黑人乐手，许多黑皮肤的 布鲁斯、福音歌手也参加了那次演出。这次演出已被看作 一座历史界碑，标示白人世界对黑人音乐艺术性上的承认。 然而，有骨气的黑人音乐家们甚至将这种“艺术性上的承 认”看作屈辱，这种态度令爵士乐史上最重要的转折点， 比波普，得以出现。那是上世纪40年代中期，一些爵士乐 音乐家决定证明爵士乐绝不是供白人取乐的世俗音乐，他 们甚至拔身离开爵士乐的种族性，而只去证实爵士乐的艺 术性。在多数客人已离开的半夜里，他们在酒吧登台，尽 兴地飙技即兴，看谁吹得更快更准，直到天色泛白。
二、福音与灵歌
• 福音音乐是历史上美国的黑人农奴接受了基督教的信 仰之后，常在田里祈祷，希望减少劳动的痛苦。不久 便演变成即兴的音乐表演。在奴隶制废除之后，黑人 们组织了自己的教堂，并把这种音乐形式作为教堂活 动的一种。20世纪中期，猫王把福音音乐引进到自己 的风格中，随后汽车城唱片公司将这种音乐商业化主 要强调有节奏的器乐伴奏和即兴演唱。

美国黑人文化的历史背景与发展
美国黑人文化的历史背景与发展美国的黑人文化是一个多元化而又独特的文化体系，它拥有独特的语言、音乐、文学、舞蹈、时尚等方面，强烈的反映了美国黑人的历史、信仰、习惯和生活方式。
美国黑人文化的形成背景有二：一，奴隶制度；二，黑人种族歧视。
奴隶制度在美国奴隶制度中，黑人演唱、跳舞、编织毛绒玩具、制作帽子和玩具等日常生活活动，就是他们的一种文化表现方式。
大约在18世纪20年代，黑人开始在美国南北地区陆续产生了独特的音乐和舞蹈。
跳舞是他们在身体骨骼状况下需要通过自己的语言、表情和印象来表达感情和生活状况的方式。
其中，非洲节奏和灵歌是美国黑人音乐的两个重要组成部分，而卡顿、大苦头和慢摇滚则是美国黑人舞蹈的代表作品。
黑人种族歧视19世纪末和20世纪初期，黑人文化的表现力更强了，因为这个时期，黑人开始涌进白人的文化界，成为音乐、文学、舞蹈、电影、体育、时尚的代表人物。
其中，爵士乐、布鲁斯、摇滚等音乐风格，以及盲人牛仔、海顿先生等文化名人，都是美国黑人文化中最具代表性的人物。
黑人音乐美国黑人音乐的三大代表作品：爵士乐、布鲁斯和摇滚乐。
1. 爵士乐在20世纪初期的美国，非裔美国人创造了一种颇为复杂的音乐艺术，它充满了奇妙的音韵，这就是爵士乐。
它的起源可以追溯到19世纪40年代，是一种非常独特的音乐风格，融合了欧洲乐派和非洲节奏，同时又结合了其它许多肢体舞蹈、芭蕾舞和歌唱等不同的表演形式。
2. 布鲁斯布鲁斯是美国非裔民众的一种多情歌谣，它始于19世纪末，当时黑人、白人与低沉的音乐和dav事情联系在一起。
布鲁斯音乐讲究内涵，采取了许多传统黑人民谣，而且在美国有许多被争议性的歌词。
3. 摇滚乐在20世纪50年代的美国，白人青少年开始“盗取”黑人的音乐去兴盛自己的文化，并形成了世界性文化现象。
摇滚乐的起源可以追溯到20世纪40年代的黑人音乐界，而这首部始于1949年的《嘱哪哪》享誉世界各地，在两代青年的记忆中于今不免眺鸟成为它的象征。
