It is clear that in these contemporary times, the traditional African American family has been disrupted by the ever-changing forces of American society. Experiencing each of these issues first hand aroused in me a huge curiosity at a very early age. Such as my life, this play is not the answer, but only an exploration. I dedicate this production to Dr. Vernell Lillie for giving birth to my pen. Thanks to Mr. August Wilson, Derrick L. Sanders, Mark C. Southers, Kevin Wetmore, KRT, Rob Penny, the cast, and all those who aided me in this process.
Great things happen because of great people.
Special thanks to God for the gift, my mother for my strength, my wife for massaging my temples, and Mr. Stephen Henderson for giving me the chance to speak.
