Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

The Black DNA Chronicles: You Know You Grew Up Black If... Volume Two: Around the Way carries the memories beyond the front door and into the church, school, neighborhood, corner store, barbershop, cookout, bus stop, backyard, and street.From church fans and usher looks to penny candy, streetlights signaling it was time to come home, neighborhood barbers and hairdressers, basketball in the street, fish-fry plates, family gatherings, Spades and dominoes, teenage dating rules, and the people on the block who somehow knew everybody's business, these pages celebrate the village that helped raise generations of Black children.With humor, affection, and cultural recognition, Mark A. Williams revisits the shared language, community traditions, neighborhood characters, and everyday experiences that made an unfamiliar place feel instantly familiar. Some memories may match yours exactly, others may remind you of something slightly different, but chances are more than a few will make you smile and say, "I remember that."
