Our forefathers used water to flee to freedom. Freedom that represented a new life as a method of escaping slavery, or freedom to death, which represented slaves leaping into calm waters to avoid bondage. Jubilee was chanted, such as “Wade in the Water,” that is still popular today. According to one lyricist, the song foreshadowed “coming signs of the end” as slaves hoped for a brighter future. African Americans discover clarity to confront life challenges, energy for hope, and giving oneself permission to arrive at their destiny in the flowing rivers.

Water has always played an important role in the African American community, from purifying of the souls via Baptist to offering an ablution to their ancestors during funerals. Water helped African Americans gain strength to overcome Jim Crow restrictions from “Blacks not allowed to drink from this fountain” and “Blacks are not permitted to swim in this pool”. A period in history when God gave his people power so that everyone may live freely. A promise made by God to all cultures over 2000 years ago through the covenant of a “Rainbow.” African Americans can now relax on the beaches, inhaling and exhaling the purity of its essence.
