Count It, Lutie
Thirty-one years in that kitchen. Now she needs one signature from a woman who would sooner burn Washington.
Memphis, 1951: Lutie Coleman has cooked in Frances Weatherall's Peabody Avenue kitchen for thirty-one years, and Congress has finally made room for her in Social Security, if her employer will file one form each quarter. Frances would sooner burn Washington in her range than let it into her kitchen, and Lutie has never once asked her for anything.
