Just A Little Ghetto Love

Tracy's Story

Tracy was the typical young black boy growing up in a ghetto coming to a crossroad in life. The road from being a boy to a man. Being the eldest son to a mother doing all she could to provide for four children could put a strain or false sense of responsibility on a young man. His only father figure at the time was an abusive immature example of everything Tracy hoped to never become. The only decent man he had known with his mother was his late step father, the father of his younger sister Trish.

His world was on the verge of change and was becoming more than his mother could handle alone. Without seemingly any other options, she finally decided to reach out to his biological father Big Tracy in hopes that he would step in and help provide his son with the proper tools to be a man. Not knowing that the world Big Tracy dwelled in was way more detrimental than Tracy had ever been a part of before. A world consisting of drugs and violence, far more than what could be seen in hood movies or tv shows. The outcome of the experiences Tracy must face could either make or break him in the end.
