| Summary |
Barlowe Reed, a single African-American in his forties, is a hardworking printer who shares, with his twenty-something nephew, a ramshackle house in downtown Atlanta's Old Fourth Ward, the birthplace of Martin Luther King Jr. Skyrocketing housing prices and the new white neighbors' presumptuousness anger Barlowe and other longtime residents. When Sean and Sandy, a white married couple from Philadelphia, buy and renovate the house next door in anticipation of a neighborhood 'turnaround, ' fear and suspicion begin to build as once familiar people and places disappear. As her husband steams under every negative incident, Sandy makes tentative approaches to have conversations with Barlowe. |
