Fall With Me
During the Great Depression, an African-American war hero must choose between providing for his family or returning to his former glory, to hold the U.S. Government accountable for debts unpaid to his fellow WWI veterans.
Baltimore -1932. Bithiah and J.J. Johnston are quietly surviving the Great Depression, while doing what they can for their neighbors. Fifty-miles south, in the nation’s capital, the world is about to explode. When J.J.’s fellow “doughboys” arrive, in search of someone to lead the fight against a government that’s left the veterans of The Great War and their families to perish, the smell of former glory intoxicates J.J and threatens to derail what little his family has. J.J. must decide what fight is truly win and what is worth the risk, should he lose.
