Forewords to the sixtieth-anniversary edition / Beverly J. Goodwin, Stephanie G. Goodwin, Carmen K. Wadley, and Leah B. Goodwin
Du Quoin, Illinois
As a fruitful vine
Cousin Frankie
The Black man's strength
Before our time
Sunday morning
We become a race of champions
When the black spider crawled
We witness a hanging
And may the best man win
Carnival time
Echoes of Algiers
I've never seen "Uncle Tom's Cabin"
The stranger within our gates
We attend a baptizing
Strike!
Miracle on Smoke Row
Balancing the score
Living is fun
A bishop visits our city
Davis' mine goes on a rampage
Dad converts a socialist
almost
Our pioneers in race relations
The ugly mask of fear
Black and powerful.
