Black Americans made some of the most earth-shaking sounds of the 20th century. For a start they invented jazz and the blues, and today it would be hard to find a corner of the planet where the impact of those vital musical forms hasn't been felt. But they also produced one of the most profound bodies of religious music. Join Nick Bollinger for a guide to Black America's rich tradition of religious song: In the Spirit.
