A look at another African American lifestyle

This book was an eye-opener in that we get to view another way of African American lifestyle that many of us are unaware, black as well as white. Slavery forced us into a divide and conquer theory among blacks but Ms. Logan Alexander's family never forgot their African heritage and dedicated themselves to uplift the race leaving a legacy that is still intact. I recommend this book and look forward to reading her new book, Homelands and Waterways.

The book is an excellent book on her family memories

Miss Alexander book will help me with my own family history. The Barnes family of Hancock County Ga. Which were also freed people of color. Many thanks to you Ms. Alexander!!!! You have done a excellent job!!!
