The Third Door - The Autobiography of an American Negro Woman

The Autobiography of an American Negro Woman: Tarry was devoid of pronounced African-American racial markings, and her interactions with white Americans were not characterized by fear or distrust, but when her own brown daughter was subjected to racial discrimination she wrote The Third Door in 1955 to tell America about the plight of her people.
