Abstrakt: | Boys, singing in an alley behind Louretta Hawkins’ house, are threatened by a policeman named Lafferty, who regularly beats, arrests, and shoots black ghetto males. Lou helps them escape. She and her mother live in a five-room house with seven other people. Lou often takes care of the younger children, including sister Arneatha’s out-of-wedlock baby. The whole family lives on brother William’s post office salary, because their father has deserted them. |
