Celebrating Day 6 of Black History Month with Elizabeth Taylor Greenfield aka "The Black Swan". "Elizabeth was born a slave in 1819 in Natchez, Mississippi, she had little reason to dream of the life that would eventually become her own. Because of a series of unlikely circumstances and her own relentless efforts she would eventually become known as the first African American singer to gain recognition in both Europe and the United States. Ms. Greenfield died in Philadelphia on March 31, 1876". - www.blackpast.org #NatchezMS #Mississippi #Philadelphia #Quakers #Singer #Music #TheBlackSwan #TheMoreYouKnow #Lessons #phillysfinest https://www.instagram.com/p/CK-WEUJnFLn/?igshid=1qhulx7ranxo7
