Composition for saxophone sextet, originally part of the dance piece “Last Supper at Uncle Tom’s Cabin / The Promised Land.” It introduced and accompanied the section Last Supper that drew on the abolitionist speech known as “Ain’t I A Woman,” delivered by Sojourner Truth in 1851. “Sojourner’s Blues” was recorded by the Julius Hemphill Sextet on the posthumous album At Dr. King’s Table (1997).
