Instead, she marries a man who will bring her nothing but disappointment and watches helplessly as her firstborn twins succumb to an illness a few pennies could have prevented. Hattie gives birth to nine more children whom she raises with grit and mettle and not an ounce of the tenderness they crave. She vows to prepare them for the calamitous difficulty they are sure to face in their later lives, to meet a world that will not love them, a world that will not be kind. Captured here in twelve luminous narrative threads, their lives tell the story of a mother's monumental courage and the journey of a nation. 650 0 $a Books on compact discs. 650 0 $a African American women $v Fiction. 650 0 $a African American families $z Philadelphia $z Philadelphia $v Fiction. 650 0 $a African Americans $x History $x History $y 20th century $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Audiobooks. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 gsafd 700 1 $a Ojo, Adenrele. 700 1 $a Turpin, Bahni. 700 1 $a Lazarre-White, Adam, $d 1969- 941 $a 2 945 $a cda 952 $l BVPE851 $d 20220728013438.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20140812082036.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=30C7667C220911E49404A1B3DAD10320 994 $a C0 $b IW5Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
