After returning to the cotton fields, tobacco barns, and humble dwelling places of her ancestral home in North Carolina, Lorraine Johnson-Coleman learned first hand what is missing from the history books about African-American culture: the experience of ordinary people who have led extraordinary lives. In this heartwarming collection of short stories and essays, Johnson-Coleman pays tribute to such plain folks. From the front porch to the shanty steps, she introduces us to the kin folks and the home folks, the caretakers and the waymakers and reminds us that it isn't so much about where we are that's important, but where we have come from.
