Her story begins with her birth in 1946 in High Point, North Carolina, the second of two daughters. She tells of her father's death when she was two years old, her mother's remarriage, her mother's death when Mary was just eight years old, and Mary's subsequent move to New Jersey to live with relatives. She shares a host of traumatic stories, including a confrontation with the Ku Klux Klan, encounters with a pimp and drug dealers, and a beating from police.
