She recalls Cloin’s unusually talented youth as the drum major of the high school and two universities. She describes her grandmother’s family of ten children, and their deep roots in the Church of Christ. Carley describes her school years, her friends and her activities, her interest in dancing and her piano lessons. She sets the story straight with her version about the racial accusations made toward her mother when she got up from her dinner and invited the rowdy basketball team to take their business curbside.
