WHTBC Prologue - Prospect Park
Synopsis
When Foster Lawrence was eighteen years old he fell from a fifth floor window in Manhattan.
And does not know how.
This incident served as his “coming out” tale. Ten years later, he attempts to find out what happened that night by navigating the New York City terrain and the New York Police Department. Foster begins to understand constructs of America as he explores the trajectory of his life, queer history, and the moment we are in now.
