This story takes a look at the effect of racial injustice on the mind of a Black seventeen-year-old, above-average high school graduate in Philadelphia who finds himself caught between two worlds. Disillusioned by what he sees as unjustified murders of African American men and women by people sworn to protect and serve, Kenny makes the decision to explore the fast money option of drug dealing. He barely escapes a police sting operation, and as a result, is sent to spend the summer with family members who live on a farm in Georgia. Kenny meets some like-minded young people in Georgia which presents the opportunity to continue his pursuit of fast money while his family endeavors to turn him away from the streets and toward higher education. Will they be able to overcome his righteous indignation and cynicism in time to save him from prison or worse?
