Pg. 9. “Aw, aw! Ah’m colored!”
Janie didn’t know her mother or father, and instead was raised by her grandmother and white folks named Washburn. When a man came to the house to take their picture, she didn’t really know that she was different until she saw it. She was with the white children for so long that she didn’t realize she was black until she was about six years old.
