This book is about my autobiography and who I am, where I come from, my life story, my ancestors, my cultural identity as a Black Woman of Color. I came from an abusive home--physical, psychological, and sexual abuse. My grandparents, the late Will Graham and the late Clara Jackson, were born in the late 1800s. They worked for free and for a roof over their heads. They were sharecroppers and picked cotton out on the fields on the plantation for $3 a week and sometimes nothing. They starved for meats and breads a lot. They planted a garden and made their own clothes. They went without shoes, electricity, TV, and air-conditioning or fans in the summer times. There was no light, and they used a woodstove to cook their food. They had outdoor bathrooms. They were very spiritual. This book is about slavery times and Mississippi.
