Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Black Aunt: Stories and Legends for Children The mannikin at first looked timidly around and made all sorts of queer faces; but pretty soon he began to tell stories about birds and owers, and about knights and elves, and while he was speaking the aunt believed that she saw all that he was telling about. It seemed to her as if the flowers were growing up out of the inkstand, the gold glistened clearer and clearer, the knights moved past on stately horses, and the elves danced and sung in the moonshine. The aunt sat per fectly still and looked steadily at the inkstand and at the black mannikin as she listened to his wonderful narra tives. Then a big dronefly came flying into the border of her night cap, and hung there in the lace and kicked and buzzed so that the aunt struck at it and rubbed her eyes. But the mannikin without being frightened at all, ducked down into the inkstand, the stopple fell back into its place and so all these splendors disappeared.

Book excerpt: The Epaminondas character is a young black boy, and the stories are based on folk tales from the Southern states of the U.S., similar to Helen Bannerman's The Story of Little Black Sambo, which was originally written about a boy from Southern India but was later illustrated in many printings with characterizations of African Americans. The stories' texts focus on and derive their humor from the problem of miscommunication between adults and children. This same concept of ridiculous/comical scenarios due to simple misunderstandings is also the basis for the famous Amelia Bedelia book series.

Book excerpt: I am a Great Grandmother who lives in a small town in Virginia. I have a black and white cat named Ambrose who is very fond of sleeping at my feet. I like to watch the birds and butterflies in the summer, standing on my front porch. And in the winter, I make sure there is seed set out for the birds to eat. I grew up in a family of five sisters. Each one named after a precious jewel according to the month they were born in. There was Pearl born in June, Sapphire born in September, Emerald born in May and Ruby born in July and of course I born in October. My mother wanted us to always remember how special we were by naming us after valuable jewels. My mother's family came from Scotland. We would grow the biggest potatoes' in the whole county. My sisters went their own directions but I stayed on the small farm. I met my husband, James, a local farmer and we married. We raised four children, two boys and two girls. I see every new day as something to behold and be grateful for and we each have the opportunity to show some sort of kindness. There is a world of wealth in kindness, and it is the kind of wealth this material world knows nothing about. l always have the good Book by my bedside and a prayer in my heart. I want to send a hug and a smile to every child and let them know that they are all precious, sparkling JEWELS!

Download or read book Children of Strangers written by Kathryn L. Morgan and published by Temple University Press. This book was released on 1980 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Collecting her family's own stories and photographs, Kathryn Morgan has brought to life the attempts of five generations of black women to cope with the fears, angers, and anxieties of life in a hostile white society. Compiled in three parts-the Caddy Legends, childhood reminiscences, and Maggie's memories of "color" and "race"-these tales are written in the southern, black oral tradition, and were told and re-told as emotional buffers against an inherently inhuman situation. According to the author, "family folklore was the antidote used by our parents, grandparents, and great grandparents to help us counteract the poison of self-hate engendered by racism." The two principal "warriors" in these stories are Caddy, the author's great-grandmother, slave-born fountainhead of the family's oral tradition, and Maggie, the author's mother, who could often "pass" because her skin was so light. Through their recollections we receive an intense portrayal of everyday black life in a variety of settings and periods as well as characters and personalities. From Caddy's home in Lynchburg, Virginia, to the successive generations that settled in North Philadelphia, the psychological effects of emotional and physical segregation are recounted in many telling and ironic episodes. Stories such as "How Caddy Found Her Mother," "The Whipping and the Promise," and "God and Lice" are profound in the truths they reveal. Attempting to make the family's past applicable to the present, the stories invariably had the function of bolstering the individual's self-esteem. The fifteen photographs included in the book help introduce the reader to the Morgan family. Too often traditional scholarship has presented black family life only in statistical aggregates or as a social problem.Children of Strangersis a new kind of evidence about black urban and ethnic life; it provides striking insights into the successful strategies used by black families to raise their children in a white-dominated world. Author note: Kathryn L. Morganteaches History at Swarthmore College.
