Our readingWhat is a korrent?
Drawn from what Frederick Douglass said
happiness What makes a life go well: whether it is meaning, love, virtue, enough money, or simply expecting less.
Slaves sing most when they are most unhappy. The songs of the slave represent the sorrows of his heart; and he is relieved by them, only as an aching heart is relieved by its tears.
