Available for years

It’s 1968, and while the world is exploding around him, racially and politically, 17-year old Kev Williams keeps a low profile working as a mechanic, the only black man in a white-owned garage. He was keen to leave a school where he was an anomaly. A loyal son to Eunice and Cyrus, Kev knows his place in the family hierarchy and stays within it, despite the pain it causes him to see his half-sister Yvonne getting most of the attention. But times are changing for Kev too. He is not all he seems and has his own plans for moving on. Show less
