Chicken Shack: Growing Up Black and Poor in Alabama During the 1940'S, 50'S, and 60'S

This book describes what life was like for my family and me living in rural, rurban, and urban Alabama during the 1940's, 50's, and 60's.

Life for a poor black family living in Alabama during these decades was quite challenging.

Even more challenging was being a poor black male growing up in Alabama during the 40's, 50's, and 60's.

This is my story.
