Once Upon a Time When We Were Colored
Clifton L. Taulbert. Council Oak Books, $9.95 (0pp) ISBN 978-0-933031-34-0
Taulbert tells of growing up in tiny Glen Allen, Miss., in the 1950s; although relations between blacks and whites were generally amicable, he did not escape discrimination's sting. PW called this ``funny, sweet, touching. . . . A book about poor families who shared joys, sorrows and occasional treats in celebration of their heroes--Jackie Robinson, Marian Anderson, Joe Louis et al.'' Photos. (Aug.)
