Item Description

Married to Sinis a first person account of a rural family's poverty and dysfunction.  The children in the family experience hunger, neglect, and incest.  RDLN Leader Meredith McGee worked with her co-author Darlene Collier to tape record the oral history and edit the material into this 171 page book.  As the jacket states "Collier¿s  ¿tell all¿ memoir leaves readers speechless... [Her] story reache[s] back to slavery and its aftermath and resumes in the mid-twentieth century detailing decades of family dysfunction and abuse." Some churches in the area are using the book as a basis for discussion of the troubling issues involved. Ms. McGee also runs her own enterprise, Typing Solutions & Etc. and is a partner in a family business Heirsskymall.com, through which one can purchase this book on Amazon.  She is also head of her family investment company.

As an RDLN Leader and recipient of a Billie Jean Young Scholarship, Ms McGee earned her master's degree from Antioch University.
