The life story of a black woman born in slavery on a Louisiana plantation who is freed at the end of the Civil War and lives for 100 more years to see the second emancipation. The story begins in 1864 as she describes her young life during the end of the Civil War, and it ends 100 years later as she sets out with a group of friends to lead a demonstration for the freedom that had been promised her a century before.
