About This Item
New York: Alfred A. Knopf, 1986. Through the story of her own extraordinary family, Lena Horne's daughter gives us a fascinating, intimate look into "America's historic family secret," the black bourgeoisie: that network of families who for a century, from the Emancipation to the Civil Rights Movement, served as black America's ambassadors to white America; met on the campuses of such colleges of Fisk, Howard, and Atlanta universities; and wielded influence in government, journalism and education.
