Terrell Jones has all the ingredients anyone needs to give up. His father died, leaving him “man of the house” to take care of his younger sister and now drug-addicted mother. He doesn’t live in the best of neighborhoods, and his only other real friend is his girlfriend, Tracey. Yet through a series of events (with help from a particular entity), Terrell manages to cope and thrives. His next accomplishment lies at his fingertips as he receives a partial acceptance letter from an HBCU. The only catch, he has to tell them why they should accept him. With what seems like a simple task, the unexpected loss of Terrell’s go-to support entity spirals him into a world of self-doubt. Can he do this on his own? Can he accomplish anything else without what he feels is responsible for his flourishing?
