Dark & Light — Francis Oliver Lynn

GHETTO FLOWERSI: Dark & Light continues the story of inner city youth from the South Philadelphia culturally diverse neighborhood into and through their high school years. Their stories illustrate the full spectrum of the adolescent experience as demonstrated in the lives of these teenagers while they ride the tide of change brought about by the national social and political turmoil of the late sixties & early seventies that sweeps through their community, requiring them to blossom or wither as they are tossed into the darkness of inner city ghetto realities. The struggles brought about by racism and violence requires them to find their way into the light of personal freedom; breaking the chains of ignorance and prejudice. These youth demonstrate remarkable resilience, discovering the transformational power of love, they become healers to each other and this liberates their minds as they learn the meaning of true friendship. They are the Ghetto Flowers! Read their stories and learn from their experiences.
