Synopsis "Sharecropper's Daughter: Wit Country Ham and Red Eye Gravy, Buttered Sugar Biscuits, Cheese & Eggs, Cow Milk, Home Made Ice Cream and Sweet Tea"
One of the advantages of age, getting older (perhaps even maturing), is refection on our youth, and on life in general...and although we can only visit, and seldom actually return to our roots, the mental journey is always with us...Cora Ford Ingram has made the physical, mental, and spiritual journeys home many times and while she currently resides in Grenada, MS with her husband Steve, she has recorded, to the best of her "recollection", the journey of her youth growing up in Pontotoc, Mississippi. Her memories of early life as part of a family nurtured, sheltered, and shielded, on a tenant farm, being a student at Pontotoc Attendance Center after consolidation but before integration, entering adult life by going to college, then marriage and parenthood...along the way, she "finds herself" (many times over) and now is testing both her voice, the veracity of her memory, and Her-story...it is a journey, personal, private, and public...it is the record to be titled: Sharecroppers' Daughter...you are invited to read and witness fragments from each of our lives retold...looking back, and looking inward finding the connecting threads of which the fabric is made...it is a narrative, a search, a summative review, a beginning, again...
