one example of a minstrel tune will be "old dan tucker." they're 1844 song, "get off the track," a campaign song for the liberty party, the first anne slavery party in the united states history. one of the most popular songs of the singers becomes the anthem of the antislavery movement, in the 1840s and 1850s, ised" dan tucker" sped up. they used a faster tempo. but again, they're using a tune that everybody can recognize and putting their own lyrics on top of it. they refuse to sing to segregated audiences. concert spaces in the 1840s and 1850s are -- and of course certainly throughout the 19th 19th century and the 20th 20th century, are almost always accepted hutchinson family singer shows and a few other examples -- almost all segue degree gaited. african-americans are given the seats in the way back. often a special section, but at the very least, whites and blacks are not to sit together in the same rows. certainly not interspersed. the hutchinsons try their best to promote a desegregate it audience. this gets them a lot of criticism.
