The blues is the accumulated folk wisdom of African Americans that imparts the knowledge to survive in a hostile world not of their making through coping strategies of resistance, defiance, indirection, parody, or resignation. "Trouble in mind, I'm blue/But I won't be blue alway/Cuz the sun in going to shine in my backdoor someday."
