Abstract
-
This scene of a working-class woman returning to a ramshackle house after a long day's work dramatically expresses the abysmal poverty and bigotry faced by African American Southerners. In the 1930s and '40s, their descendants, exploring their past, rediscovered the South as a place of beauty, strength, vitality, violence, and tradition.
