The Education of a Storyteller by Toni Cade Bambara (The People Who Could Fly)

from http://www.amazon.com/The-People-Could-Fly-Folktales/dp/0679843361

Today, we read The Education of a Storyteller by Toni Cade Bambara. What are your thoughts about the story?  How did the story affirm, challenge or change your understanding of American culture, African American culture, literature and/or black feminisms/womanisms/girlhood?

Bonus what might this story reveal about The Middle Passage?
