Summary |
By high school, Sampson Davis, Rameck Hunt and George Jenkins already knew too much about the drugs, crime and grinding poverty that colored their world. They pledged to help each other make it to college and even medical school. The doctors beat the odds and returned to their community to practice medicine. Now, despite grueling work loads, they face an even more daunting task: to inspire other to stay off drugs, out of gangs, and in school. |
