Description
ITLL ALL COME OUT IN THE WASH is a vivid account of a
tenderfoot Negro girls negative experiences while coming of age
under Jim Crow laws. Deeply depressed by what she perceived to be a national disaffection
for Negro children, debilitating physical and emotional symptoms
asserted themselves in the authors early childhood and continued
unabated into maturity. In an effort to manage her frequent bouts with
depression, she would eventually seek mental health therapy as
an adult. A book of many genres, this memoir is chock-full of
nostalgia, situational humor, melancholy, loving family portraits,
short stories, and philosophical musings on the pernicious effects
of racial insensitivity.
