Mississippi: Memories of Race and Place

To be rooted is perhaps the most important and least recognized need of the human soul... A human being has roots by virtue of his real, active and natural participation in the life of a community... this participation is a natural one in the sense that it is automatically brought about by place, conditions of birth, profession and social surroundings. Places, and particularly home, are seen, therefore, as the foundation of our identity. Given the acceptance of place as important, a sense of place is seen as a necessary feature of individual identity.
