(I was) never quite black enough

Conrad Queen

a young man's search for identity

The story of a young man coming of age in the 70s and 80s in the Bronx, tormented because his outlook, politics, and skin color were not 'black' enough. With the Webster Avenue Butler-Webster houses as a backdrop, he stumbles through social dynamics, early relationships, teenaged relationships, violence, searching for others like himself
