"A profoundly poignant yet triumphant book, a recreation by an Alabama-born black of her struggle against racism and poverty while striving for the common dream of Americans. . . . {A} marvelously earthy 'narrative.'. . . Her memoir is the stuff of human pride made memorable in raw, homely vernacular".--Publishers Weekly.
The daughter of a freeholder, Sara Brooks was born in 1911 on her parents' subsistence farm in west Alabama. Here in her own words, she makes us understand what it felt like to be young, black, innocent, and steeped in the ways of a black rural world that has largely been lost to us.
