Adelaide Banks authored this book written from the perspective of a Black Descendant of American Slavery. It explores her familiars from birth, through adulthood of a lifelong American journey in her only "homeland." A perspective ripe with teaching opportunities for the larger fellow American community. History, experiential knowledge, sociology of homeland rules and the whys of human behavior are some of the arenas discussed. A book for our times to find meaning and understanding for all who seek the promise of an American DREAM.
