Summary Bill returns to his hometown, Marion, Ohio, after Alton, his son from a former relationship, is arrested on drug charges. Bill was a teenager when he fathered his first children and he grapples with guilt about the son and daughter he left behind. He revisits the streets of his childhood in a now-disintegrated black community, noting "there is no more black culture." Many of his family and old friends now either work at the nearby prison or have served time there - a fate Bill narrowly escaped and one from which he was unable to save his son.
