Black Leather Jacket

Police reform had never occurred to Jamal until that one faithful day in October 1995 in Gary, Indiana. Charismatic and courageous, Jamal is ready to enjoy his three-day weekend. Although he must write a last-minute essay on the topic of social justice, he looks forward to asking out the new girl in town, Kadijah.

On his way home from school, Jamal and his best friend Simon are harassed and wrongfully accused of committing a crime that occurred in a nearby town. They are handcuffed and taken to the police station for interrogation. Jamal refuses to answer Officer Worthington’s questions and doses off while waiting for his dad to come to the rescue. But when he wakes up, Jamal finds himself in a much different time and place.

The year is 1969, and Jamal lives with an unfamiliar family in Chicago. He quickly learns that he, like the rest of his family, is a member of the Black Panther Party. Jamal grapples with confusion, but his existence is made plain when he makes a long-distance call to Gary but fails to recognize the voices of his parents. Will Jamal adapt to his new life and resume his obligations to the party? Or will his uncle send him back to Gary on the greyhound bus to face more of the unknown?
