Open Communication: Having Your Voice Heard
Brown, Angela
International Journal of Education and Literacy Studies, v3 n1 p12-13 Jan 2015
Communication is the use of language to exchange information to one another. African slaves used to embark on communication by means of using common symbols and speech, telling stories, singing spirituals, writing poems. As time revolved, blacks valued education. Education and the ability to read write and effectively would give them the skill or trade they needed to overcome obstacles, to be competitive with society and to become successful. The nature of communication would evolve productively towards social and economic freedom.
