FLORA PATTERSON (70s-80s) African American, Female, a cantankerous, deliberate elder who keeps looks out for the community. She has a melodic voice and can break out in a hymn. She mourns the death of her grandson, Marcus, who died by gang violence.
TYRON (20s) African American, Male, a local drug dealer who stands outside all day in front of Ms. Flora’s building. He has swag and rolls like he’s gangsta. Everything about him spells “thug.” Exhibits a hardened exterior, but we know the truth.
