A sad, funny, and poignant story of childhood emerges as memories surface of racism and of the dysfunctional family life she left behind. Turmoil during the 1960's racial integration of southern schools fill her mind, as do the challenges of her first job, at age eleven, as the live-in caregiver for an elderly white woman.
