American Boy

American Boy is told in first person through the innocent eyes of an African American teenager, Samuel 'Pete' Turner. At the tender age of five, Pete witnesses the tragic death of his Father. Naturally this has a profound effect on Pete's entire life. Despite the fact that he is raised in a middle class enviroment by his loving Mother, Mary, Pete continually seeks love and guidance from basically any man who shows the slightest bit of interest in him. Unfortunately, he is surrounded by Men who do not fully know the meaning of being a man or even worse, Men that do not feel the need to lend a helping hand to insure that the young Men in their presence grow to be strong productive citizens.
