For quite a few years, she traveled around the country to visit various black family reunions to observe what families did. She interviewed various members of those families as well. The result is this book, which delves into the social and psychological benefits of having reunions, as well as some advice and guidance on the nuts and bolts of planning and holding a reunion."--Back cover 650 0 $a Family reunions $v Handbooks, manuals, etc. 650 0 $a African American families. 650 0 $a African American extended families. 650 0 $a African Americans $v Genealogy. 941 $a 1 952 $l YCPD572 $d 20220518025610.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=73AC94A2D67011EC9B4EC3D73EECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
