The search for self-definition is passed on through four brothers as they struggle with the Jim Crow legacy of their father. Deep wounds left on his psyche are passed onto a generation of sons. Told with humor and pathos by one of those sons, this true story puts human faces on the fallout of America's original sin.
Post-Show Conversation: “The Legacies of Jim Crow and Black Family Dynamics” with Dr. Mikal Rasheed, Author of “Family Therapy with Ethnic Minorities”. | Moderated by Judy Tate
