When We Were Colored A Mother's Story

Eva Rutland, author of more than 20 novels, presents the timely and relevant story, first published in 1964, of her life in the years before integration, before affirmative action--when segregation was the norm, discrimination was legally tolerated, and blacks were second-class citizens (from the introduction). Her story is poignant at times, uproariously funny at others, and always down-to-earth.Rutland, Eva is the author of 'When We Were Colored A Mother's Story', published 2007 under ISBN 9781934178003 and ISBN 1934178004.
