The lifestyle of a naive black male is intimately observed as he grows up in red state Oklahoma. For many African Americans the definition of a red state is a place where segregation and inequality continues to be a way of life. As the young man matures into manhood, separate neighborhoods, economic and educational disparities, and the fact that one out of every three black men will end up in prison, are the muted conversations between blacks and whites. This story is about some of the obstacles that have prevented an intimate relationship between blacks and whites since the Civil War. Before the Civil Rights movement of the 1960's it was virtually impossible for African Americans to mingle with, or to join any of white America's social groups. As a teenager the boy desperately desires to have a meaningful relationship with whites, especially the women. But none of the southern-belles seem to be attracted to the tall, handsome black man. Sexually he’s a late bloomer. He’s awkward, excited, overwhelmed and pre-ejaculates on his first sexual encounter. In passionate scenes, he learns the art of love making.
When he’s a Jr. in college he’s profiled and arrested for the possession of crack cocaine. Was he framed? The young man becomes a statistic and is sent to one of the most dangerous prison‘s in the country. He’s exposed to brutal beatings, malicious murders, and terror lives with him at night. Through a series of nightmares he’s transported back in time to actual historical events. The Trail Of Tears, The Fugitive Slave Law, The End Of Reconstruction, The Share-cropping System, Oklahoma’s Land Runs, Oklahoma’s 50 All-Black Towns, Vigilante and police Sanctioned Castrations and Lynchings, The Dread Scott Decision, Oklahoma’s 18 Jim Crow Laws, The 1921 Tulsa Race Riot, and much more…

About The Author
Kenneth Bowens was born in Tulsa Oklahoma. Thirty-four years earlier, in 1921 the most affluent African American community in U.S. history, Greenwood’s “Black Wall Street” was bombed and destroyed. The National Guard flew airplanes and dropped incendiary devices right down on Black Wall Street. Some folks believed that the fiery explosives were nitroglycerin shells. The Tulsa Police Department united with fifteen thousand white vigilantes and they machined gunned and killed three hundred and maybe as many as three thousand black children, women, and men. They looted and burned fifteen thousand homes, six hundred black businesses, twenty-one black churches, twenty-one black restaurants, thirty black stores, and two black movie theatres. Kenneth lived in Seattle, Washington for fifteen years, where he wrote two plays, and studied improvisation and acting. He’s moved back to Oklahoma and lives in Oklahoma City.
