Dom is an African American man in his late twenties who finishes up on the final touches of a poster he is working on. He is preparing to attend a protest this morning but first he has to get his brother Kev up and ready for school. Dom is not only Kev's brother, but he's taken on the responsibility of being his father as well. Dom shares with us his history of bad decisions that started by following his two older brothers who were the only example he had in the inner-city streets of Chicago. On the poster he has a picture of Kev at fifteen next to him at fifteen. He reflects on the reality that at fifteen he was carrying a gun and doing all the wrong things, but that change is possible. After the tragic murder of his two brothers, he immediately decides that in order to save Kev's life he has to be a better example. At a young age he builds a plan with his mother to get them out of Chicago and into a place where Kev can be safe.

They will not bury another child. He found himself as a teenager taking on the role of being a father/ big brother to his little brother. This is a story of triumph in a search for understanding. Dom desperately wants to make a better way for Kev hoping that if he can change, that others who drown themselves in the stereotypes of the black man can change as well. That Kev might have a chance to be judged on his merit, his worth, and the great person that he is?the fight continues.
